Book Recommendation: “The VR Book” by Jason Jerald

Written by Martin Kraus on . Posted in General

Hello,

I’m currently reading “The VR Book: Human-Centered Design for Virtual Reality” by Jason Jerald. It doesn’t discuss algorithms nor mathematics (apparently there are no equations in this book), instead it presents relevant concepts in perception, health issues with VR, content creation for VR, 3D user interaction, and iterative design for VR experiences. The book is probably going to be one of the standard texts in VR research; thus, I strongly recommend it to anyone working on VR. (I’ve suggested that AUB buys a copy. Once I’ve finished reading it, I’m happy to lend my copy to anyone who is interested in it.)
