With the continuous development and progress of virtual reality technology in recent years, the application of virtual reality technology in all aspects of real life is no longer limited to the military field, medical, or film production fields, but it gradually appears in front of the public, into the lives of ordinary people. The human-computer interaction method in virtual reality and the presentation effect of the virtual scene are the two most important aspects of the virtual reality experience. How to provide a good human-computer interaction method for virtual reality applications and how to improve the final presentation effect of the virtual reality scene is also becoming an important research direction. This paper takes the virtual fitness club experience system as the application background, analyzes the function and performance requirements of the virtual reality experience system in the virtual reality environment, and proposes the use of Kinect as a video acquisition device to extract the user’s somatosensory operation actions through in-depth information to achieve somatosensory control. This article adopts a real human-computer interaction solution, uses Unity 3D game engine to build a virtual reality scene, defines shaders to improve the rendering effect of the scene, and uses Oculus Rift DK2 to complete an immersive 3D scene demonstration. This process greatly reduces resource consumption; it not only enables users to experience unprecedented immersion as users but also helps people create unprecedented scenes and experiences through virtual imagination. The virtual fitness club experience system probably reduces resource consumption by nearly 70%.

Purpose This paper aims to improve the scene sense of a virtual scene, the welding model of a virtual reality system of riser automatic equipment was constructed using Unity3D and UG software, which mainly included a welding car, welding guide rail, welding power supply, virtual camera and other equipment and the model was rendered. Design/methodology/approach The human-computer interaction page and simulation test of the system was produced using the user interface GUI system for creating a human-computer interaction scene. The operator could capture the welding status of the physical equipment accurately and in real-time so the virtual reality technology was very suitable for the remote monitoring operation integrated with the welding system. Findings Human-computer interaction design and collision detection were realized. In addition, the system simulation experiment was accomplished. With the continuous improvement and development of virtual reality technology real-time virtual simulation and monitoring, technology will become the main development trend. Research limitations/implications Based on virtual reality, the monitoring system can capture the operation status of physical welding equipment in real-time and accurately, which is very suitable for remote monitoring operation integrated with the welding system and also conducive to improving the monitoring level of the welding process. Practical implications This technology is time-saving and money-saving, for the operators do not have to be in a real welding environment and therefore they can get away from dangerous places. Consequently, it can avoid unnecessary injuries and problems. Social implications This technology can replace people to enter the dangerous and extreme environment to carry out welding operation, so it becomes the most effective means of nuclear power plant maintenance, space structure construction and marine engineering construction. In addition, it is time-saving and money-saving. Originality/value With the rapid development of virtual reality technology in recent years, it is a new research direction to apply virtual reality technology to the remote welding operation. This technology is different from the traditional way of welding for the operators can stay away from the welding scene especially some dangerous places.

Traditional museums and most digital museums use window display to exhibit their collections. However, the agricultural tools are distinctive for their use value and wisdom contained. Therefore, this paper first proposes a method of virtual interactive display for agricultural tools based on virtual reality technology, which combines static display and dynamic use of agricultural tools vividly showing the agricultural tools. To address the problems of rigid interaction and terrible experience in the process of human-computer interaction, four human-computer interaction technologies are proposed to design and construct a more humanized system including intelligent scenes switching technology, multichannel introduction technology, interactive virtual roaming technology, and task-based interactive technology. The evaluation results demonstrate that the system proposed achieves good performance in fluency, instructiveness, amusement, and practicability. This human-computer interaction system can not only show the wisdom of Chinese traditional agricultural tools to the experiencer all over the world but also put forward a new method of digital museum design.

Cyberspace is the environment created during the experience of virtual reality. Therefore, to assert that there is nothing new in cyberspace alludes to there being nothing new about virtual reality. Is this assertion correct? Is virtual reality an exciting development in human-computer interaction, or is it simply another example of effective simulation? Does current media interest herald a major advance in information technology, or will virtual reality go the way of artificial intelligence, cold fusion and junk bonds? Is virtual reality the best thing since sliced bread, or is it last week's buns in a new wrapper?

Traditional courseware is lack of humanity. Proposes to use Agent technology achieve the humanized design in courseware. Microsoft Agent with its lively and clear human features has had a significant influence upon traditional human-computer interaction. This paper introduces the related technologies of Microsoft Agent, and discussed the realization of the principles and the design process of the Microsoft Agent in authorware . The paper gives the Agent script design structure, the human feedback of humanized courseware and the notes in the process. Microsoft Agent enhanced the expression and presentation effect of courseware by lively images of anthropomorphic expression, speech and action.

Purpose This study aims to propose a service-dominant logic (S-DL)-informed framework for teaching innovation in the context of human–computer interaction (HCI) education involving large industrial projects. Design/methodology/approach This study combines S-DL from the field of marketing with experiential and constructivist learning to enable value co-creation as the primary method of connecting diverse actors within the service ecology. The approach aligns with the current conceptualization of central university activities as a triad of research, education and innovation. Findings The teaching framework based on the S-DL enabled ongoing improvements to the course (a project-based, bachelor’s-level HCI course in the computer science department), easier management of stakeholders and learning experiences through students’ participation in real-life projects. The framework also helped to provide an understanding of how value co-creation works and brought a new dimension to HCI education. Practical implications The proposed framework and the authors’ experience described herein, along with examples of projects, can be helpful to educators designing and improving project-based HCI courses. It can also be useful for partner companies and organizations to realize the potential benefits of collaboration with universities. Decision-makers in industry and academia can benefit from these findings when discussing approaches to addressing sustainability issues. Originality/value While HCI has successfully contributed to innovation, HCI education has made only moderate efforts to include innovation as part of the curriculum. The proposed framework considers multiple service ecosystem actors and covers a broader set of co-created values for the involved partners and society than just learning benefits.
