Abstract

We present ProtoColVR, a methodology and a plugin designed for gathering requirements and collaborative rapid prototyping of virtual reality training simulators. Our methodology outlines the utilization of current technologies, the involvement of stakeholders during design and development, and the implementation of simulator creation through multiple iterations. We incorporate open-source tools and freely available environments like Twine and Unity to establish a reference implementation for requirements gathering and rapid prototyping. ProtoColVR is the outcome of our collaboration with a hospital and our Navy, and it has undergone testing in a development Jam. From these tests, we have gained valuable insights, including the ability to create functional prototypes within multidisciplinary teams, enhance communication among different roles, and streamline requirements gathering while improving our understanding of the virtualized environment.
