摘要/Abstract

摘要： 近年来,虚拟人已经在医学、心理学等领域得到了广泛应用,但其对于焦虑情绪的舒缓作用尚未得到实证研究。为此,搭建了一套包含立体显示与表情、肢体、语音交互的虚拟人系统,并针对虚拟人对焦虑的舒缓效果开展系统深入的研究。通过立体显示原理搭建出显示真实度高的虚拟人系统。通过对Virtual Human Toolkit开发包的改进,实现了虚拟人的动作驱动和中文语音交互,在此基础上针对焦虑情绪采用语音互动的方式,结合状态-特质焦虑量表和心电数据参数对舒缓效果分别进行主观和客观的评估。实验结果表明,通过高真实度的虚拟人系统对用与进行交流可以显著地舒缓焦虑情绪。

Abstract: In recent years, virtual human has been widely applied in areas such as medicine, psychology and etc. However, its pacifying effect upon anxiety has not been empirically researched. For that reason, a human system including stereo display, face, motion and voice interaction was built as well as presenting a deep study of virtual human interaction on the soothing effects of anxiety. A stereoscopic virtual human system with high visual fidelity was built using the principle of 3d display. Chinese voice interaction as well as movement and expression driven function was achieved by improving Virtual Human Toolkit development package. With interactive voice guide as the anxiety pacifying method, the pacifying effect was assessed both subjectively and objectively by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and ECG data parameters. The experiment results suggest that communicating and psychologically counseling via visual human system with high visual fidelity can relieve users’ anxiety significantly.

Key words: virtual human, anxiety-inducing, relieve anxiety, voice interaction, stereo display
