the project

We consulted with the David Sobey Centre to identify key, measurable indicators of buyer behaviour to develop a number of controlled, virtual reality environments for testing. This allowed the Centre to run participants through the virtual reality simulations to obtain large datasets on each trial for further analysis and correlation to ultimately determine various buyer behaviours and optimize store planograms.
