Unlimited Multi-User Support
The upgraded software package now supports an unlimited number of participants within a single experiment, whether connected locally or remotely. This is ideal for creating collaborative environments like virtual classrooms or team-based training simulations. Full session replays with heatmap visualizations and customizable data collection allow for deeper analysis of user interactions.
Support for unlimited onsite and remote users in VR experiments.
AI-Powered Interaction
Integrate customizable AI agents capable of real-time interaction using large language models like OpenAI and Anthropic. These AI agents can be modified in appearance and behavior and are designed to interact with users via speech or text. Researchers can use these agents to simulate human interaction or as virtual assistants in training environments, further enhancing the realism and utility of VR studies.
Researchers can animate avatars with enhanced AI language model capabilities.
Advanced Data Collection and Replay
With upgraded algorithms for eye-tracking, gaze analysis, and more, the software offers enhanced tools for collecting precise data. Researchers can track individual eye movements, analyze fixation patterns, and even collect object-specific data during experiments. These advanced data collection capabilities make the Vizard 8.0 and SightLab VR Pro 2.0 package ideal for academic researchers seeking detailed insights into participant behavior in virtual environments.
The VR software package allows for sophisticated data collection and analysis.
Expanded Content and Experiment Templates
The updated software platforms also feature an expanded library of templates and examples, designed to speed up the setup of VR experiments. New templates include tasks for cognitive research, eye-tracker analysis, and augmented reality (AR) applications. These ready-to-use templates offer powerful starting points for both novice and advanced users.
The Vizard and SightLab Package. comes with over 80 scientific experiment templates for researchers.
