Comparative analysis of light environment perception,eye movement and physiology in university professional classroom based on virtual reality experiment

Abstract

In this study, virtual reality technology was used to simulate the virtual scene of three common light environment forms of professional classrooms in universities. The experimental results show that people’s environmental perception is related to the average pupil diameter, saccade frequency, high frequency/low frequency (LF/HF) and skin conductance change rate in a combined light environment; moreover, when the colour temperature is 4500 K, the space is brighter, more spacious, more relaxed and the willingness to learn is stronger. In the range of 22.4°C–25°C, temperature does not affect people’s perception of the warm feeling of the light environment, while the light colour temperature has a greater impact on people’s perception of the warm feeling. The lower the light colour temperature is, the warmer people feel subjectively. However, people’s eye movement behaviour and physiological system data have no obvious perception of colour temperature changes. Indoor noise affects the indoor brightness perception to some extent. In the range of 43–46.9 dB, with the increase of noise value, the evaluation score of people’s brightness perception basically increases. In terms of learning psychological state, the more comfortable the light environment is, the stronger the willingness to learn and the higher the learning enthusiasm.
