[UMEDIA] [2] Toward a Holodeck like edutainment game using wearable device and motion sensors

Virtual Reality (VR) has widely infiltrated to our daily life and became a bridge for connecting information and human interaction, behavior and feeling. Using VR technologies to develop Learning Environment is not exceptional but rarely seen a Learning Environment to have misgiving about the experience change during operating and what alteration would happened in design of the Learning Environment in instance of VR experience. In this study, we develop a 3D Edutainment Environment call Holodeck Laboratory (HL), providing several playable stages which is designed with educational contents and binding VR technologies to its structure to increase the presence and Player Experience. We will recruit participants which is familiar with VR Environment and Edutainment Environment or not to participate in a Playing Test for all Stages. We attempt to explain that designing Edutainment Game Stages with consideration of VR condition and Game-Based Learning would enhance the player's Player Experience as well as the learner's problem solving skills and motivation of learning.
