Design and Function Intended Use The i-Drive Virtual Reality (VR) Driving Simulator is intended for use as a clinical tool to allow users to safely practice maneuvering their chairs via alternative drive controls in a realistic and immersive virtual environment. The system is designed to accurately simulate drive control navigation in multiple environments and terrain settings, while also replicating obstacles and conditions users would be likely to encounter in real-world chair navigation scenarios.
Initial Setup Design and Function All necessary software will be pre-installed on the laptop included in either VR system package. Follow the instructions below to set up and initiate the i-Drive VR Driving Simulator. Step One: Connect the laptop to a power source. The laptop must be connected to a power source while using the i-Drive VR Driving Simulator. Step Two: Turn the laptop on. You will be taken to a login screen displaying a Microsoft email account and an empty input box labeled "PIN".
Design and Function Step Five: Plug the VR goggles into the laptop. This includes connecting: • The goggles' HDMI plug to the laptop's HDMI port. • The goggle's USB plug to the laptop's USB port. When the VR goggles are properly connected to the laptop, a screen titled "Mixed Reality Portal" will appear. Minimize this screen. Step Six: On the laptop's desktop, double-click the icon labeled "07Step 2". This will launch the i-Drive VR Driving Simulator.
Design and Function Understanding the VR Driving Simulator The driving simulator is divided into three platform levels: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. Each of these levels is comprised of sub-levels. Each platform level has a number of sub-levels. By maneuvering the cursor of the home screen, the user selects one of the three platform levels. After the user has selected the desired level, he or she is virtually transported to the starting position of the main level's first sub-level.
Design and Function Level 1: Gymnasium 1A Objective: Navigate the chair into the blue box. This objective helps users to orient themselves to and familiarize themselves with the drive control mechanisms of their virtual wheelchairs. In this scenario, the user must execute a 180° turn then guide his or her chair into a bright blue box displayed at the opposite end of the gymnasium’s basketball court.
Design and Function 1D Objective: Navigate the chair through turns and obstacles. This objective helps users to practice executing tight left-hand and right-hand turns, as well as executing a U-turn. In this scenario, a user must slalom through a line of four orange cones, navigating to the right of the first cone, to the left of the second cone, etc. After passing the final cone, the user must position his or her chair into a bright blue box, then execute a 180° turn in the box.
Design and Function 2B Objective: Navigate the chair through the blue box while avoiding obstacles. This objective allows users to practice driving straight and performing gradual turns in an outdoor setting. In this scenario, the user must again navigate a winding gravel path in the woods. Straying from the path causes the user’s score to decrease.
Design and Function 2E Objective: Navigate the chair around obstacles, over terrain, downhill and through the blue box.. This objective allows users to practice driving straight, performing gradual turns, and navigating terrain and altitude changes in an outdoor setting with distractions. In this scenario, the user must again navigate a winding gravel path in the woods. Straying from the path causes the user’s score to decrease.
Design and Function 3B Objective: Navigate the chair through constricted areas and into the blue box. This objective allows users to practice measured driving and perform tight turns in an apartment setting with limited space. Additionally, users can practice activating switches attached to the i-Drive interface. In this scenario, a user must leave a bedroom by opening its door (using either a switch assigned to mode on the i-Drive interface, or by pressing the space bar on the laptop keyboard).
Tips for Starting with VR Design and Function Motion sickness is common for people who are not accustomed to mixed signals acting on their inner ear while receiving information from multiple sources of motion. If you are experiencing motion sickness, it's likely due to the inner ear being unable to discern whether you are moving or not.
Design and Function Here are some tips for coping with VR motion sickness: • Start out slowly, allowing adequate �me for proper immersion. • If mo�on sickness should begin to occur, close your eyes and take several short breaths. If the sensa�ons don't subside, take a break. • Remind yourself that what you're feeling is normal. Assure yourself that you are going to be fine. • Have a fan blow air on you while immersed in VR. This can help reduce the chances of experiencing unpleasant sensa�ons.
Maintenance Care and Maintenance Ensure the hardware used stays in working order by caring for and maintaining it. • Keep electronics dry. • Periodically check any hardware for loose screws or worn parts. • Replace or repair the parts as necessary. Safety Avoid getting electronics wet. Do not use electronics with wet or damp hands, as doing so presents an electrocution risk and could lead to personal injury and/or property damage.
