1. Definition

Descriptors that are based on Participant data form the Virtual Environment (objects and avatars) and have a form that is suitable for interpretation (e.g., Face and Gestures) in addition to providing Descriptors to determine cue points.

2. Functional Requirements

Participant descriptors from the virtual environment via the metaverse API per individual participant avatar.

  1. Avatar attributes
  2. Avatar behaviour Descriptors
    1. Spatial Attitude
    2. Limb, head motion
    3. Eye gaze direction
    4. Text uttered by Avatar.
  3. Avatar controls
  4. Biometric descriptors of the participant represented in the Virtual Environment.
    1. Heart rate and Heart rate variability (HRV).
    2. Brain state from EEG data (delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma).
    3. Galvanic Skin Response (Electrodermal Activity).
