Recruiting Unity VR programmers to Evaluate Sound Customization Toolkit for Virtual Reality Applications

Participate in a study by the EECS Accessibility Lab

The EECS Accessibility Lab needs your help evaluating a new Sound Accessibility toolkit for Virtual Reality!

Our research team is studying how sound customization tools, like modulating frequency or dynamically adjusting volume can enhance VR experience for DHH people. We are recruiting adult (18 or older) participants who have at least 1 year of experience working with UnityVR and have at least 2 previous projects that have sounds to add our toolkit into.

This study will be self-paced, remote, and asynchronous. It will take around 60 – 90 minutes.

In this study, we will collect some demographic information about you (e.g., age, gender) and ask about your experience working with UnityVR. We will then introduce our Sound Customization Toolkit and ask you to apply it to your own project. We will ask you to record your screen and voice during this implementation process. We will ask you to complete a form during the study to provide feedback for our toolkit.

After the study, we will compensate you $30 in the form of an Amazon Gift Card for your time.

If you are interested in participating, please fill out this Google Form. For more information, feel free to reach out to Xinyun Cao: [email protected].
