Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) technology has been applied successfully in a wide range of fields, as mobile devices and wearable electronics have become popular commercial products. In this pilot study, we apply the VR technology with seven main steps to reconstruct a historical site (i.e., a nonextant historic east Taiwan railway station) to develop a VR simulation system. It provides an interactive environment for users to experience and appreciate historic east Taiwan railway stations and railway culture. 70 participants are engaged in user experience testing to verify if the VR simulation system can ensure usability and increase user satisfaction. The result indicates that the VR simulation system contributes to higher satisfaction on user interactive learning and operation efficiency and thus can be used to enhance user experience. It is arguable that the proposed VR simulation system could provide valuable insight into digital user experience in relevant fields.
