ABSTRACT

Considering the new technological contexts, extended reality (XR) is very beneficial to accelerate learning processes due to its immersive characteristics, first person interaction, customisation and realism. However, its massive use has been limited by the difficulties of access to technologies, but even more by the difficulties of design and development of this type of experiences. This research proposes a design guide to facilitate development by non-expert users, as a first step to automate the creation of XR learning experiences. An application case in risk prevention training in construction is developed to demonstrate its reliability.
