Abstract
Various examples are related to first person virtual reality (VR) characters suitable for testing of inclusive design solutions. In one example, a virtual reality (VR) system including a VR headset that can display a simulated VR environment to a user; controllers that can receive inputs from the user; and a computing device that can execute a VR application to simulate a VR character in the simulated VR environment, where the VR character simulates a physical impairment produced by a disability. Interactive first person VR characters with haptic capabilities operating in a simulated environment can provide feedback to the user that would not be available otherwise without physically constructing the environment.
