Virtual Reality: Navigation in Mobile Applications with Using Google Cardboard

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to study, analyze and consider the general problems and prospects of using navigation systems in a virtual environment on mobile devices using Google Cardboard virtual reality glasses. The research methodology consists of the methods of semantic analysis of the basic concepts of a given subject area (navigation systems in virtual environments). The article discusses the existing approaches to the development of navigation systems. The novelty of the research is the solution of navigation problems in mobile applications that operate in virtual reality. Conclusions. The work analyzed the existing problems and prospects for the use of navigation systems in mobile applications that can be used in the field of education gamification. Taking into account the results of the analysis, the authors have developed a navigation system that is important for solving problems of improving the effectiveness of gamification of learning processes (especially distance, online learning, e-learning).
