More Familiar or Unfamiliar? Exploring the Impact of Adding Avatars to Three-Dimensional Collaborative Virtual Environments on Peer Social Presence

Remote maintenance refers to the maintenance tasks performed by off-site personnel using communication devices. The quality of collaboration among off-site personnel has been a focus of research on remote maintenance. With the rapid development of virtual technology, remote collaboration has gradually transformed into a three-dimensional (3D) collaborative virtual environment (CVEs) based on mixed reality technology. 3D CVEs has improved the efficiency of the staff using real-time screen sharing and fusion of virtual and real information. The interaction modes provided by 3D CVEs also have deepened the sense of task participation of off-site personnel. Nevertheless, the addition of new technologies has had a complex impact on trust, communication, cohesion, and task performance among off-site personnel. In this study, we investigated the combined effects of intimacy between collaborators and the avatar interaction mode provided by a 3D CVEs on social presence, interpersonal trust, task performance, and task load during collaboration. The results showed that acquaintances were able to quickly establish good interpersonal trust among themselves and had better task performance even in a CVEs. For strangers, performing tasks through CVEs enhanced their social presence. In addition, the avatar had a more complex effect on the performance of members with different levels of intimacy in 3D CVEs.

Analysis of Virtual Spokesperson in Marketing

Based on the development of virtual technologies and networks, the virtual idol market is experiencing a remarkable surge, attracting more and more young people around the world, especially in Asia. These virtual icons are increasingly seen as alternative brand ambassadors to traditional celebrities, helping brands broaden their brand image and target audience. A number of well-known brands, including Chanel, Gucci, and L'Oral, have capitalized on this trend by partnering with well-known virtual icons. In keeping with this trend, some brands have even created their own unique avatars to round out their brand image. Watsons, a chain retailer specializing in personal care products, has launched a virtual ambassador "Wilson". Therefore, this paper discusses the current business value of virtual idols through theoretical analysis and takes Watsons' virtual ambassador as an example. It also analyzes and suggests the marketing strategy of Watsons' virtual idol. The virtual idol market is a new market direction with great potential, but it lacks relevant operation experience to maximize its value.

Влияние виртуальной реальности на сознание человека с позиций христианской антропологии и современной психологии

The relevance of this article is determined by the penetration of information technologies into all spheres of human life, the impact on his consciousness and personality. The purpose of the article is to show the differences in the assessment of the influence of virtual reality on human consciousness in modern psychology and from the point of view of Christian anthropology. The hypothesis is proved that the reason for these differences lies in the different understanding of the essence, structure and mechanisms of consciousness in science and patristic teaching. The key approaches to understanding consciousness in the neurosciences, in domestic and foreign psychology are described. The Christian approach to human consciousness, the connection with the concepts of "freedom", "conscience", "shame", "duty", "responsibility", "mind", "reason", the patristic teaching about the 3-level structure of the mind, about purification and keeping the mind, about asceticism and the practice of hesychasm as an experience of increasing consciousness. It is concluded that in science, human consciousness is associated with the activity of the brain as a substratum of the psyche, which leads to its excessive simplification and reduction to the psyche of an animal. In contrast to this, in Christian anthropology, a person is not only a rational being, but also a moral one, so he needs to be aware of the meaning of his being. The definition of the concept of "virtual environment" and the results of scientific research on the influence of the virtual environment on human consciousness are given. The negative consequences of the uncontrolled use of virtual reality are described: 1) from the point of view of science, these are, in particular, screen addiction, cognitive impairment, dehumanization of human consciousness and transhumanism; 2) from the point of view of Christian anthropology: deprivation of unity, orderliness, integrity and freedom of the inner world of man; food for the emergence of passionate thoughts, obscuration of the mind, spiritual devastation. It is concluded that the development of virtual technologies and their practical use should be the subject of special attention from scientists, psychologists, physicians, and it is necessary to consider the influence of virtual reality on human consciousness not only from the standpoint of modern science, but also in the coordinate system of the Christian worldview.

The Application of Virtual Technology Based on Posture Recognition in Art Design Teaching

With the development of virtual technology, posture recognition technology has been integrated into virtual technology. This new technology allows users to further understand and observe the activities carried out in life scenes based on their original observation of the external world. And it enables them to make intelligent decisions. Existing posture recognition cannot meet the requirements of precise positioning in virtual environments. Therefore, a two-stage three-dimensional pose recognition model is proposed. The experiment illustrates that the three-dimensional gesture recognition performance is excellent. In addition, under the ablation experiment, the error accuracy of the research model decreased by more than 5 mm, and the overall error accuracy decreased by 10%. In the P-R curve, the accuracy rate of the model reaches 0.741, and the recall rate reaches 0.65. When conducting empirical analysis, the virtual posture disassembly action is complete; the disassembly error is less than 5%, and the disassembly error accuracy is good. The fit degree of the leg bending amplitude reaches over 96%, and the fit degree of the arm bending amplitude reaches over 95%. When the model is applied to actual teaching, the overall satisfaction score of teachers and students reaches 94.6 points. This has effectively improved the teaching effect of art design and is of great significance to the development of education in China.

Analysis and Evaluation on the Harmfulness of Sports Dance Based on Intelligent Computing

With the rapid development of motion analysis and editing technology, more and more animation technologies based on real human motion analysis are widely used in games, medicine, film and television, sports, and other fields. The role of this technology in the teaching system of sports dance arrangement cannot be ignored. This paper studies the application of intelligent algorithm in injury analysis of sports dance choreography and puts forward a smooth and natural motion editing method which is more in line with the characteristics of human motion. The square spherical surface intelligent algorithm is used to naturally transition the rotation posture of each frame of human joint, and the action modification of computer-aided dance choreography system is more in line with the real action of human body. Simulation results show that interframe data can be used for the same type of dance. Different types of dance arrangement can adopt the method of inserting a new framework between the two dance movements, so as to finally meet the needs of sports dance coaches and students to observe their own dance movements in an all-round way, so as to facilitate the arrangement and modification of sports dance movement design. It provides a certain reference for the application and development of virtual technology in the field of sports and greatly improves the current situation of sports dance teaching equipment. Through animation simulation technology, we can effectively avoid the injury caused by dangerous movements, provide a way of observation and improvement for coaches’ dance teaching, and effectively improve the training effect. Compared with traditional dance choreography methods, the intelligent algorithm in this study can make the animation display of sports dance more coherent and realistic and effectively solve the needs of current events observation and modification in sports dance choreography. It can produce complex movements with simple movements and help teachers arrange and teach sports dance. Avoid the accidental injury caused by the limitation of time and space in traditional teaching and realize the modernization and intelligence of physical education teaching.

Clinical Study of Virtual Reality Augmented Technology Combined with Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound in the Assessment of Thyroid Cancer.

Thyroid cancer has become the most common malignant tumor in the endocrine system, and its global incidence has been showing an upward trend. The diagnosis methods of thyroid cancer include ultrasound, fine-needle aspiration cytology, and neck CT, but the single ultrasound feature cannot simultaneously take into account the sensitivity and specificity of more than 85% when diagnosing thyroid cancer. The development of virtual technology can significantly improve the diagnosis of the thyroid gland. Based on this, this article proposes a clinical study of virtual reality technology combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the assessment of thyroid cancer. This article uses a variety of methods, such as literature method, mathematical statistics, and experimental research, in-depth study of the theoretical cornerstones of virtual reality augmented technology, the application status of ultrasound contrast technology, and so on. And a fuzzy mean clustering algorithm was proposed to identify ultrasound images. Then, a clinical experiment of virtual reality augmented technology combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound was designed to evaluate thyroid cancer, which included comparison of contrast-enhanced ultrasound signs, analysis of enhancement results, multifactor logistic analysis, and diagnostic efficacy analysis of ultrasound signs. The combined application of virtual reality augmented technology and contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the study of thyroid cancer has a sensitivity and specificity exceeding 85% as the diagnosis boundary changes, and the accuracy of the combined diagnosis is relatively high.

ВИРТУАЛЬНАЯ РЕАЛЬНОСТЬ КАК ЭКЗИСТЕНЦИАЛЬНАЯ ПРОБЛЕМА (ОПЫТ ИНТЕРПРЕТАЦИИ ФИЛЬМА АННЫ МЕЛИКЯН «ФЕЯ»)

The article presents the author's view on the problem of the active invasion of the virtual (or virtuality) in the existence of modern man. The development of virtual technologies in the conditions of Internet civilization is another step towards the creation of artificial intelligence. An unprecedented technological breakthrough and the limitless possibilities of the Internet, first of all, actu-alize ethical problems that are not fully realized by the scientific community. In particular, virtual mythological reality supplants the true existence of our contemporary. This is seen as an escape from reality, with all the ensuing consequences: infantilism, the impos-sibility of genuine socialization, the lack of formation of a value (scientific or religious) worldview, unmotivated aggression and, as a result, an irreplaceable deconstruction of the personality. This problem is considered based on the material of Anna Melikyan's film "Fairy", which won all the main prizes of the online festival of Russian cinema "Big Screen" in 2020.

Definir un entorno virtual para la enseñanza y aprendizaje (EPA), criterios y enseñanzas

La vigente cultura docente, orientada fundamentalmente desde la lógica de la comunicación vertical, la estandarización y la evaluación externa debe reconfigurarse para adaptarse a las necesidades y características del trabajo no presencial de los estudiantes, mediante intercambios virtuales, basados en la comunicación horizontal y en red, en la personalización de los mensajes, así como en la autorregulación y autoevaluación. Este texto describe y argumenta el proceso de creación, aplicación y desarrollo de las tecnologías virtuales a las relaciones de enseñanza-aprendizaje en la universidad, de acuerdo con el concepto de Entorno de Aprendizaje Personalizado-Portafolio (EPA) que designa la propuesta elaborada y analizada aquí que se halla en concordancia con la propuesta de EDUCAUSE, (Brown, Dehoney y Millichap, 2015). No se trata de emplear herramientas sueltas, sino integrarlas en una sola plataforma, con sus diversas funcionalidades. El modelo EPA desarrollado se configuró desde la pretensión de ir más allá del empleo de una variedad de herramientas virtuales. La reflexión desarrollada acerca del empleo de estos recursos por parte de los diversos profesores y estudiantes, y a partir de una amplia encuesta y recogida de valoraciones de los estudiantes, puso de manifiesto, entre otros aspectos importantes, que cualquier tentativa del profesorado de desarrollar e implementar en las propias clases un determinado EPA requiere, por su parte, la asunción de un rol que se podría denominar como de ‘agente del cambio’ en lugar del de consumidor pasivo de plataformas digitales cuyos diseños le son ajenos. Dicha capacidad de agencia de cambio, no obstante, requiere tomar en cuenta algunos aspectos que se consideran al final.

Crossing Materiality and Immateriality: LED Architecture and Architectural Virtualization

LED building means that the LED screen covers building surface mostly, which could real-time reflect information, while forgetting the concept of “wall”. The information materialized itself. At the same time, information approaches the relationship between the architects and the popularity, so that confuses the difference. The space will not “be pushed” by the architects, while “being fetched” by the popularity. This visual space not only “analogs”, “translates”, or “amplifies” the real images, but also the other kind of existence. Virtual building expands the controlling mode in the physical world. It is a new way of travel, communication, control, and express. With the development of popular consuming culture and visual culture, and the exploring of LED expression and development of virtual technology by architects and artists, the LED buildings and virtual buildings will the indispensable existence with us. As a new kind of architectural design innovation, will they reveal the future the architecture development?
