Prototyping Virtual Reality Game for Educating Novice Drivers in Road Traffic Safety




Abstract:
Emphasizing the importance of road traffic safety is a constant effort of many generations, even before the invention of motor vehicles. The paper presents a prototype of a virtual reality game that was developed to enable novice drivers the opportunity to examine, experience, and experiment with critical and/or hazardous road traffic situations and scenarios in a safe digital environment. Prototyping is about discovery, trial, and error. Virtual reality technology was chosen to get closer to the generations of novice drivers who grew up in a technologically rich environment, surrounded by various digital devices and accustomed to their use. A small-scale study was performed on a group of 18 novice drivers using the prototype. The presented approach proved to be effective and successful, so further development of the game project will be undertaken by expanding the created prototype
