The First Large-Scale System for Human Subjects XR Research
Supported by five collaborative grants from the U.S. National Science Foundation, the Virtual Experience Research Accelerator (VERA) project is developing a human-machine system for carrying out human subjects research related to extended reality (XR), including Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality, for the XR researcher community. It seeks to achieve unprecedented scale, speed, and control over experiments. The project also seeks to foster a broad and collaborative community of XR researchers to increase the opportunities for research partnerships and professional growth.
