Propuesta metodológica para la creación y evaluación de sistemas de recorrido virtual web inmersivo

Abstract

Immersive web virtual tour systems are technologies that allow users to explore online virtual environments in an immersive way; for their development and evaluation, critical aspects should be considered like the design of their environments, graphics, animations, in addition to the design of the user's experience and interaction, which are significant in virtual tours. In this context, this degree work proposes a methodology for the creation of immersive web virtual tours and a quality model that allows evaluate this type of system. The methodology is based on an iterative approach in each of its phases or stages, which are: assignment, analysis, design, implementation and evaluation. For this last evaluation phase, a quality model has been prepared that includes indicators related to efficiency and performance, usability and maintainability. To evaluate the methodology and the quality model, a case study has been carried out in which an immersive web virtual tour system has been created on the Chanlud hydroelectric dam belonging to the Elecaustro company. The result of the study demonstrates that the methodology and the quality model are effective in the implementation and evaluation of immersive web virtual tour systems.
