Abstract :
[en] The Public Speaking project is a Virtual Reality
(VR) training system dedicated to the improvement of public
speaking skills. It provides users with the opportunity to rehearse
their speech in a realistic virtual environment which displays
an interactive audience. The experience is customized based on
the chosen training scenario, which is determined by the room,
participant’s role, audience behaviors, and timer. A companion
website provides comprehensive feedback reports on speakers’
performance, based on their verbal and nonverbal behavior,
as well as replay functionalities. In addition to its educational
objective, this system is used as a tool to advance research into the
development of effective public speaking training environments.
