Virtual Road Safety (VRSafe) is a virtual reality (VR) platform that allows cyclists to practise safe cycling on Singaporean roads and Park Connector Networks (PCNs).
VRSafe represents an integrated hardware and software development effort to create a realistic cycling VR experience.
Hardware development involves mounting a bicycle on a stationary trainer that sends cycling data to a VR headset. Custom hardware may also be required to detect hand gestures (e.g., signalling), steering input from the handlebar, and braking input from the brake levers.
Software development includes displaying the VR environment, processing bicycle inputs to generate interactions, and implementing AI scripts for objects within the environment. It also covers creating art assets, such as 360° video backgrounds and 3D models of cars, pedestrians, bicycles, and personal mobility devices (PMDs).
Various types of VR experiences have been prototyped to evaluate the appropriate design for the team’s goals.
