It provides immersive social and collaborative environments where people can meet, discuss and interact. While the technology offers new opportunities, it also brings important challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cSocial interactions in XR can be difficult to manage, especially when discussions become complex, conflictive or unbalanced,\u201d explains GuestXR(opens in new window) scientific coordinator Mel Slater, from the University of Barcelona(opens in new window). \u201cThere is also a risk of exclusion, unequal participation and communication barriers, particularly for people with hearing difficulties,\u201d adds project member Amir Amedi from Reichman University(opens in new window).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Social psychology, neuroscience and behavioural science<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The EU-funded GuestXR project, coordinated by Eurecat, set out to address these issues through supporting more constructive, inclusive and effective interactions in virtual environments. More specifically, it aimed to help detect and mitigate conflict situations, reduce antisocial behaviours, and ensure that all participants can take part in a more balanced way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe core concept behind GuestXR is an artificial intelligence agent called the Guest, designed to operate within extended reality environments,\u201d says Slater. \u201cThis agent is embedded directly into virtual or augmented spaces where people interact, observing both individual and group behaviour in real time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Based on models from social psychology, neuroscience and behavioural science, the agent is able to interpret what is happening in the interaction and intervene when needed. Slater explains that its role is not to control the conversation, but to facilitate it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cFor example, it can encourage quieter participants to contribute to the discussion, help maintain a constructive tone, reduce tension if a conflict arises, and guide the participants of the group to achieve the meeting\u2019s objectives,\u201d he notes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>XR technology in four use cases<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The project team applied their XR technology to four use cases, including social situations that could trigger conflict or debate. The XR environment was designed to encourage participants to explore different perspectives in potentially conflictual situations. Historical protests were also simulated to help the team explore individual and group responses, and to assess the extent to which the Guest was able to influence participant engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The project team also created an innovative XR game in which players\u2019 actions in cryptocurrency mining reflect the environmental impacts of unsustainable resource usage. The game confronts players with the consequences of resource scarcity, to raise environmental awareness, work led by Andrzej Nowak from the University of Warsaw(opens in new window).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, the project explored how to involve people with hearing impairments in XR environments. \u201cNew tools to optimise acoustics and enhance speech understanding in extended reality were developed, helping people with hearing difficulties to join and participate in meetings,\u201d explains Umut Sayin, researcher at Eurecat.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Responsible innovation in XR<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Following positive results, next steps include moving from experimental validation to more applied scenarios. \u201cGuestXR technologies have already shown potential in areas such as moderated virtual meetings, education, training and social inclusion,\u201d says Slater. \u201cThe climate-related XR application has been used in collaboration with educational organisations, and the protest simulation framework is being adapted for other types of scenarios.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the long term, the GuestXR project hopes to have demonstrated how XR can contribute towards a \u2018metaverse for the good\u2019, to be used as a space for positive and constructive social interaction. Through responsible innovation in XR, we have shown how artificial intelligence can be integrated into social environments in a way that supports human interaction while respecting ethical principles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Foto: \u00a9 GuestXR Eurecat<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EU researchers have shown how extended reality can be used as a space for positive and constructive social interaction Extended reality (XR), which includes virtual reality and augmented reality, is a technology that merges the physical and virtual worlds.
