3. Four levels ofVR – some questions
» Immersion
› Does immersion support knowledge gained and retention of the events portrayed?
» Spatiality
› Does a 1st person experience increase the feeling of “being there”, and does it generate
empathy for the situation and later recall of the material
» Embodiment
› What does the feeling of embodiment offer?What kind of insight can be gained from
standing in another’s shoes?
» Affect
› Do Audience members findVR experiences more engaging than 2D ones?What kind of
emotions get generated?
