- KonferenzbeitragLeveraging Virtual Reality Simulation to Engage Non-Disabled People in Reflection on Access Barriers for Disabled People(Mensch und Computer 2024 - Workshopband, 2024) Brogle, Timo; Ermoshkin, Andrej Vladimirovic; Vakhutinskiy, Konstantin; Priewe, Sven; Wittig, Claas; Meiners, Anna-Lena; Gerling, Kathrin; Alexandrovsky, DmitryDisabled people experience many barriers in daily life, but non-disabled people rarely pause to reflect and engage in joint action to advocate for access. In this demo, we explore the potential of Virtual Reality (VR) to sensitize non-disabled people to barriers in the built environment. We contribute a VR simulation of a major traffic hub in Karlsruhe, Germany, and we employ visual embellishments and animations to showcase barriers and potential removal strategies. Through our work, we seek to engage users in conversation on what kind of environment is accessible to whom, and what equitable participation in society requires. Additionally, we aim to expand the understanding of how VR technology can promote reflection through interactive exploration.
