# Experiences with a Virtual Reality System for Immersive Decision Making and Learning ## Overview **Authors:** Kiran Neupane, Ananya Hans, Ahhyun Lee, Robby Criswell, Kannappan Palaniappan, Ye Duan, Prasad Calyam **Publication Date:** 22 February 2024 **Link:** [https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10440663]() **Keywords:** Immersive virtual environments, virtual reality, usability study, interdisciplinary collaboration, cybersickness **Type:** Peer-Reviewed Journals/White Papers ## Summary The CAVE system offers a novel and unmatched paradigm for cutting-edge VR research in comparison to conventional VR technology, such as Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs). However, its effectiveness and usability needs to be studied in the context of diverse applications. In this paper, we present a study of the "Mizzou CAVE" at the University of Missouri-Columbia, and report on the experiences in terms of its usefulness in cross-disciplinary applications, and the opportunities/challenges for potential researchers and users. Specifically, the study features Likert-scale-based questionnaires to collect empirical quantitative data for measuring efficacy and satisfaction outcomes striving towards the purpose of applications involving decision making and learning. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
