DESIGNING A VIRTUAL TOUR MODEL AT ORENBURG STATE UNIVERSITY
In addition to the entertainment industry, virtual reality (VR) has myriad potential applications. This study uses virtual reality in a virtual tour scenario. In particular, it describes the design and evaluation of a prototype of a virtual university tour to help freshmen in finding classrooms. Each panorama contains cue points that allow the user to further explore their surroundings. The number of transition points depends on the performance and state of the streaming server. All photographs were combined using photo sewing techniques to create a panoramic image. The panorama type was set to a flat panorama. System testing was carried out to get user feedback on the virtual tour and in order to make improvements to the prototype. The developed intuitive system for moving students around the university based on the use of virtual reality technology, as well as the designed scenario of the virtual tour, received positive feedback, and all participants agreed that this would simplify the students’ search for the required audience, the student will be able to plan his route in advance most effectively and do not be late for class.
