This allows the learner to quantify their performance and improve areas of their speech each time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eye contact analysis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How eye contact is calculated<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/blog\/practice-virtual-reality-improve-eye-contact\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eye contact analysis<\/a>, the app assumes the eyes are looking directly forward from the head. In this way, when the learner moves their head to look at something, the app assumes the eyes move as the head moves. If you watch presentations, you&#8217;ll notice this mostly holds true and is a&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/blog\/the-athletes-way\/201403\/the-neuroscience-making-eye-contact\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fair assumption to make<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The app records the learners&#8217; eye contact throughout the speech and then provides a heatmap of where the learner was looking while speaking. This allows the learner to easily see any areas they have neglected or focussed too much on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Saving and uploading the speech for detailed evaluation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once learners have reviewed their performance, they have the option to save their speech and listen to it later, allowing them to identify areas that require improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The learning portal provides a dedicated &#8216;Results &amp; Recordings&#8217; section where saved speeches can be accessed. This can be found both in the VR apps and through your web browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Enterprise package, you can also unlock an admin dashboard to track progress at scale and easily measure ROI. This will allow you to easily identify strengths and learning gaps. And you will gain access to<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/roleplay-studio\"><strong>Roleplay Studio<\/strong>,<\/a> where you can <strong>customize roleplays and feedback criteria<\/strong>\u2014ensuring your team is evaluated on what truly matters to your organization<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Track progress within the app<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Progress from each practice session is stored and can be viewed in VR or in the learning platform. With this, you can check how you are progressing over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3475\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.8857142857142857;width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard.jpg 650w, https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard-500x269.jpg 500w, https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard-139x75.jpg 139w, https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skill-assessment-dashboard-480x258.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width:767px) 480px, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The VirtualSpeech app provides a powerful way for people to analyse their speech or presentation. The feedback allows learners to identify weaker areas of their speech and work to improve those parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, with the realistic environments, audience, and personalisation (load in your own slides or add audience questions), the app takes you close to being fully immersed in the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See our&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/virtualspeech.com\/courses\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">range of VR courses<\/a>, which give you detailed feedback on your presentation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Analysis of a presentation given in virtual reality, using speech-to-text insights and eye contact tracking technology to measure performance and provide real time feedback.
