How to make VR easy for first time users
When stepping into the realm of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Immersive technologies offer incredible opportunities for training and learning, but for first-time users, they can be disorienting and intimidating. This is where Tutorial Mode on ManageXR can help.
What is Tutorial Mode?
“Tutorial Mode” in ManageXR works with Tutorial Apps created by VR and AR content developers and ISVs. When the device is turned on, the Tutorial Mode tool automatically launches a Tutorial App. Users are immediately sent to the Tutorial App to experience a friction-free orientation to VR and AR.
Benefits of Tutorial Mode
Tutorial Mode is the bridge that connects first-time users with the immersive world of XR. This tool is essential for reducing friction, speeding up the learning process, and improving the overall user experience. It’s a powerful tool that enables users to overcome the initial challenges they may face when using VR and AR devices.
One of the primary benefits of Tutorial Mode is that it offers a smooth and delightful introduction to the XR environment. It acts as a gentle guiding hand that takes users through the basics, ensuring they feel comfortable and confident from the very start. The result? Users who can easily navigate immersive environments and who can take full advantage of the content.
How Tutorial Mode Works
You can easily disable or enable Tutorial Mode on any supported XR device through device settings on ManageXR. When you enable Tutorial Mode, the Tutorial app will automatically launch when the device is turned on.
Devices will exit Tutorial Mode as soon as users exit your Tutorial App. This ensures that users don’t spend more time than necessary in the introductory phase, allowing them to quickly transition to their desired XR experiences.
On ManageXR, resetting Tutorial Mode for the following user is easy. You can remotely send a real-time command to Enable Tutorial Mode (to individual devices or in bulk). This way, if you’re running an event or training where users are cycling through devices, you can give every new user the tutorial experience easily.
Conclusion
The world of VR and AR is an exciting one, filled with opportunities for learning, training, and healthcare solutions. Ensuring a smooth introduction to VR for your users brings your deployment one step closer to long-lasting success. Simply turn on your headset, launch your Tutorial App, and embark on a journey that promises to transform how we learn, work, and play in the virtual world.
