Desarrollo de una aplicación móvil de realidad virtual para conocer instalaciones promocionar productos y servicio que oferta el mercado “Chiriyacu” en la ciudad de Quito

Abstract

The main objective of this curricular integration work was to develop a mobile application utilizing virtual reality tools for virtual tours of the market through a guided visit inside the facilities, showing products and services of the "Chiriyacu" Market, located in the city of Quito. We utilized the SCRUM methodology for the current work, which allowed obtaining adequate information in the exploration and planning phase, followed by the fulfillment of each of the system metaphors and user stories, being part of the development phase. We carried out the documentation and implementation of the application for the final phase of the project, complying precisely with what was planned in each sprint. We utilized a survey of satisfaction with the use of the application to obtain the results, which encompassed 20 questions and the indicators taken into consideration were: user-friendly interface, ease of use, and experience with the implemented application, with a total sample of 91 people. The evaluation of usability based on Nielsen's heuristic principles resulted in acceptance percentages between 36.6% as low and 94.60% as high, thus giving 76.78%, accepting the application as usable. It was possible to conclude that the main characteristics of virtual reality were identified and successfully incorporated into the application developed, synthesizing the processes to learn about the facilities, promotions and services of the "Chiriyacu" market. It is necessary to take into consideration that the use of non-SQL databases allows a high level of scalability and availability, as well as independence to define schemas, Unity 3D also stands out as a useful tool to design virtual and user-friendly worlds.
