AI-ENHANCED VIRTUAL REALITY FOR IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with virtual reality (VR) presents a groundbreaking approach to creating immersive experiences across various domains, including gaming, education, and training. This paper explores the development and implementation of an AI-enhanced VR system that adapts to user behaviour, preferences, and environmental variables to provide personalized experiences. By leveraging machine learning algorithms, the proposed system analyses user interactions and continuously optimizes the VR environment for improved engagement and satisfaction. Preliminary results demonstrate the potential of this technology to revolutionize how users engage with virtual environments, offering insights into its broader applications and future developments. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with virtual reality (VR) represents a transformative advancement in creating highly immersive and adaptive experiences. This paper details the development of an AI-enhanced VR system designed to analyse user behaviour, preferences, and environmental factors to deliver personalized interactions in real-time. Leveraging machine learning algorithms such as reinforcement learning and neural networks, the system monitors user actions, interprets engagement patterns, and dynamically adjusts virtual environments to align with individual needs and goals. For instance, in educational applications, the system can modify lesson difficulty based on user progress, while in gaming, it can create tailored challenges that maximize enjoyment and skill-building. Preliminary results from pilot studies indicate measurable improvements in user engagement, satisfaction, and retention rates, with early users reporting a significantly more intuitive and immersive experience. This approach not only underscores the potential of AI-VR integration in fields like gaming, training simulations, and education but also paves the way for applications in healthcare, remote collaboration, and mental health therapy. By addressing challenges such as computational efficiency and ethical concerns, this research highlights the immense potential for AI-driven VR systems to redefine the boundaries of virtual experiences and contribute to the evolution of human-technology interaction.
