Abstract
"Real Baby - Real Family" is a Virtual Reality baby nursery simulator that aims at conveying the parental and family love to the audiences. It has since been exhibited at Laval Virtual 2017, Anime Expo 2017, and SIGGRAPH 2017. This article will attempt to discuss the feedback and reviews gathered during the international exhibitions and shed light on the future development of this project.
Highlights
Babies are the fruits of parental love. Such “conjugal love” and “love in family ties” can be used as a synonym for a child, or a baby. This project, named “Real Baby - Real Family”(MOCHIZUKI and NISHIKIZAWA ), is a virtual reality baby nursery simulator that allows friends, homosexual couples, and heterosexual couples to experience the joy of raising a child
“Real Baby - Real Family” is characterized by a virtual family enabling the players to communicate with a baby through haptic, visual, and audio feedback while wearing a headmounted display (HMD)
Number and percentage of players who changed from “Yes” to “No” after the experience is 42 out of 180 players or 23% while players who changed from “No” to “Yes” stands at 42 out of 92 or 46%. Despite both SIGGRAPH and Anime Expo both takes place in Los Angeles Convention Center, “Real Baby - Real Family” is more effective at convincing SIGGRAPH attendees to want to have baby than Anime Expo attendees despite of the version shown in both conferences being exactly the same
Summary
Babies are the fruits of parental love. Such “conjugal love” and “love in family ties” can be used as a synonym for a child, or a baby. This project, named “Real Baby - Real Family”(MOCHIZUKI and NISHIKIZAWA ), is a virtual reality baby nursery simulator that allows friends, homosexual couples, and heterosexual couples to experience the joy of raising a child. It is our hope to invoke deep discussions about family ties and love with this VR project. Reactions and feedback from the attendees as well as future possibilities of this baby nursery simulator are discussed in detail
