Numerous scientific collaborations with researchers from our team or outside have also contributed to this work, in particular Olivier Christmann, Geoffrey Gorisse, Philippe Blanchard, Marc Pallot and Laurent Dupont.

The students of the MTI3D Master’s at the Institut Arts et Métiers de Laval contributed to this work by realizing some of the technology elements presented in this book.

Finally, thanks to Laurent Chrétien and the great team of Laval Virtual for their logistical support and for the regular exchanges on the uses of immersive technologies that have stimulated our creativity over the years.

In this book, we regularly refer to research work conducted by our team at the Institut Arts et Métiers de Laval. It is therefore not superfluous to provide a few elements of context beforehand.

The École Nationale Supérieure d’Arts et Métiers is a French engineering school renowned for its orientation toward the industrial world. The Institut de Laval, attached to the Angers campus, has developed in conjunction with the Laval virtual reality ecosystem and in particular Laval Virtual, the organizers of the international virtual reality trade show. The institute manages the MTI3D master’s degree, which trains high-level students in the management and engineering of immersive technologies. The Institute’s researchers form the “presence and innovation” team of the “Laboratoire Arts et Métiers ParisTech d’Angers” (LAMPA). The work of the team concerns not only virtual reality, user experience and use cases of virtual reality in different industrial sectors (training, health, product design, etc.) but also innovation methods and creativity. Alongside research activities, the team is led to support companies in their adoption of immersive technologies and also in their innovation processes, notably through the animation of creativity workshops.
