A Comparative Study of Design Evaluation with Virtual Prototypes Versus a Physical Product

Applied Sciences, 2020
Design evaluation is an important stage in the product development process. Virtual prototypes enable economic design evaluation with higher flexibility, but the evaluation effectiveness may be limited compared to that of the real product.

Use of Virtual Environment and Virtual Prototypes in Co-Design: The Case of Hospital Design

Computers, 2019
Co-design is used for improving innovation, obtaining better solutions, and higher user satisfaction. In this paper we present how the use of a walk-in virtual environment and actual-size virtual prototypes support co-design.

Synergistic Verification of Hardware Peripherals through Virtual Prototype Aided Cross-Level Methodology Leveraging Coverage-Guided Fuzzing and Co-Simulation

Chips, 2023
In this paper, we propose a Virtual Prototype (VP) driven verification methodology for Hardware (HW) peripherals. In particular, we combine two approaches that complement each other and use the VP as a readily available reference model: We use (A ...

Design of Control Elements in Virtual Reality—Investigation of Factors Influencing Operating Efficiency, User Experience, Presence, and Workload

Applied Sciences, 2023
Virtual reality (VR) enables prototypes of devices to be evaluated in a simulation of a future usage environment. A disadvantage is the insufficient feedback design during the interaction with prototypes.

VIRTUAL PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY VS. ENVIRONMENT [PDF]

Acta Tecnología, 2019
Specialized robotic workplaces or systems are not only a complex issue, but at the same time they are financially demanding in the field of production, especially, when the prototypes essential for mechanical engineering or forestry are concerned. Such a

Virtual Urban Field Studies: Evaluating Urban Interaction Design Using Context-Based Interface Prototypes

Multimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2023
In this study, we propose the use of virtual urban field studies (VUFS) through context-based interface prototypes for evaluating the interaction design of auditory interfaces. Virtual field tests use mixed-reality technologies to combine the fidelity of
