WindowMappr©

The WindowMappr© was developed to make spatial challenges connected to landscape and land use tangible, visible and easier to discuss in a low‑threshold way that stimulates interaction, reflection and co‑creation, both in educational settings and in practice, where digital participatory mapping tools are often too technical or distant for quick, collaborative use. Its simple and consistent setup makes it broadly applicable across contexts, supporting spatial thinking in education and facilitating the exchange of knowledge, experiences and perspectives in participatory processes without requiring technical expertise. This document provides a practical guide for constructing the WindowMappr© and outlines its basic principles of use.

How to toggle Between VR and Non-VR Cameras in Unity

Limitations of testing VR interactions with the simulator While the XR Device Simulator allows us to simulate a VR experience, it should not be used to test VR interactions. For instance, you can try and test interactions like grabbing and rotating different objects e.g. grab a fruit or twist a valve. If you manage to get the inputs right from the mouse and keyboard, you will notice that it is hard to operate and can even feel inaccurate at times. There is simply a major difference between mouse and keyboard input and tracking input from the VR headset and controllers. For validation of the VR interactions and user experience, it is essential to use the VR headset and controllers. On the other hand, the XR device simulator is easy to use for early (or frequent) testing and debugging. Main Concepts XR Device Simulator in Unity VR camera vs. non-VR camera usage Toggling between VR and non-VR modes for testing Learning Goals Understand how to switch between VR and non-VR cameras in Unity Learn how to use the XR Device Simulator to test VR scenes without a headset Know how to control the simulated rig using keyboard and mouse inputs Key Takeaways The XR Device Simulator allows VR scene testing without a physical headset Toggling the Device Simulator on switches Unity to non-VR camera mode Disabling the Device Simulator reverts back to the VR camera for headset use The simulator supports basic movement and interaction testing, though it can be clunky Further Exploration Search for “Unity XR Interaction Toolkit” Search for “Unity XR Device Simulator setup” Search for “Testing VR applications without headset in Unity” Explore Unity’s Input System for VR and non-VR controls

Adding UI Elements to your scene

Main concepts UI prefabs in VR as reusable building blocks for interaction and feedback Text and message panels with optional button input Look At and Slow Follow components to keep UI readable and user-focused in VR Hierarchy-based customization of UI content (text, headers, buttons) Button-driven flows to trigger actions such as animations and scene progression Learning goals After this lesson, learners will be able to: Locate and use VR-ready UI prefabs from the project assets Place and rotate UI panels correctly in a 3D VR scene Explain how Look At and Slow Follow scripts work and when to use them Customize UI text and button labels through the hierarchy Create a simple onboarding flow using a UI button to trigger scene actions Key takeaways UI prefabs are designed for reuse and consistency across VR experiences Proper orientation and positioning are essential for user comfort and readability Look At and Slow Follow help UI remain accessible without manual repositioning Buttons can act as control points in a step-by-step interaction flow Simple UI interactions can effectively guide users through onboarding and experiments Further exploration Search terms: Unity VR UI prefabs World-space canvas in VR XR Rig UI follow behavior Unity button events and animations Next steps: Experiment with multiple UI panels chained into a longer onboarding flow Connect buttons to other actions such as teleportation or scene transitions Test different UI distances and heights to optimize user comfort Explore accessibility considerations for VR UI design

How to onboard and support an immersed user

Recommendations and guidelines for first-time VR users (research context) Explain what to expect before putting on the headset Briefly describe what the person will see and hear in VR, and reassure them that they can stop at any time. Check comfort and safety first Ensure the headset fits comfortably, the straps are not too tight, and the play space is clear of obstacles. Start with a calm, simple environment Avoid overwhelming visuals or fast movement during the first experience. Begin with a neutral or static scene. Introduce controls gradually Explain one interaction at a time, such as pointing or selecting, before introducing more complex actions. Encourage slow movements Ask the participant to move their head and body slowly to reduce the risk of discomfort or motion sickness. Maintain verbal contact throughout Stay in communication, regularly asking how they feel and offering guidance while they explore. Observe body language and reactions Watch for signs of discomfort, confusion, or anxiety, and be ready to pause or stop the experience if needed. Normalize uncertainty and mistakes Let participants know it’s normal to feel unsure or awkward during their first VR experience. Provide an easy exit option Clearly explain how to remove the headset or exit the experience if they want to stop. Debrief after the experience Ask how it felt, what was clear or unclear, and address any concerns before continuing or ending the session. These guidelines help ensure a safe, supportive, and positive first VR experience, especially in research and educational settings.

ShareXR : Challenge-Based Learning with XR (BMS Lab, University of Twente)

ShareXR introduces a challenge-based learning (CBL) approach for integrating research, design, and development in engineering education through extended reality (XR). Developed at the University of Twente’s BMS Lab, the model addresses the increasing need for multidisciplinary collaboration by teaching students to speak a shared language across research, design, and technical development. Even for those without an engineering, scientific or STEM background. This course offers a hands-on, multidisciplinary learning experience where students take real research ideas and transform them into innovation projects within a complete and validated open learning XR ecosystem. With reusable multimedia course content, the course enables students to understand interdisciplinary collaboration, while each module focuses on one of the four pillars: Research, Design, Development, and Project Management — guided by principles of balance, iteration, and collaboration. By working with different tools like one-page project canvases, students will learn how to translate research ideas into structured user stories, requirements, and project management tasks, while exploring how XR tools can act as a human-centered medium for prototyping, testing, and validating ideas without requiring coding skills.
