Remote adversarial VR serious game simulating COVID-19 infection spread and protection protocols

This paper presents Virtual Reality 3D interaction and simulation techniques in the context of the 2021 3DUI contest of the IEEE VR conference. This work discusses the design and development of a simulation based on COVID-19 indoor safety guidelines, aiming to familiarize and inform the potential users about the methods of transmission of SARS-CoV-2. These techniques are integrated in the context of a 2 players remote adversarial virtual reality serious-game, focusing on the education of the user, concerning airborne viruses transmission and health protection protocols through an entertaining gamified simulation.
