A continuación, te explicamos cómo puedes transmitir confianza en tus presentaciones de realidad virtual.

To deliver a smooth performance, you must feel comfortable and confident about all the controls and VR equipment you use. Check if your microphone is good enough to be heard clearly; you may need to plug in an external headset. I like to rehearse with my friends in the audience to tell me if I move naturally and if I can be heard and seen without anything disturbing. Knowing the specific application or service well before you present would be best. Are any presenter and room/audience/mic controls available? Can you moderate the discussion quickly? If you need to share slides, would it be possible? Can you switch slides with a controller, or do you need to use a clicker and share externally? Maybe someone needs to share the slides for you.

In my experience, To ensure a smooth presentation, familiarize yourself with your VR equipment and software. Spend time practicing with the headset, controllers, and the virtual environment you'll use. Check that all technical aspects, such as audio and visual aids, are working correctly. Seamless interaction with the technology will prevent disruptions and demonstrate your competence and control, essential for exuding confidence. This preparation not only boosts your own assurance but also impresses your audience with your professionalism and mastery of VR tools.

Si vas a presentar un proyecto en realidad virtual a un cliente, una presentación en power point la verdad puede ayudar al inicio, pero de ahí tienes que mostrarle en directo lo que va obtener con esta tecnología. Siempre preparo de acuerdo a mi cliente y teniendo esa corazonada que el proyecto puede salir, invierto en desarrollar una demo pequeña o llevar alguna experiencia parecida a la que estoy ofreciendo. Recomiendo más que todo en la presentación, mencionar las ventajas y el ahorro que puede significar para nuestro cliente.

I remember presenting my Virtual reality project in university. I made sure I practiced and tested my project multiple times, this helped me to deliver my speech effortlessly to the panel. So practicing and testing are crucial to improving your confidence when presenting your VR projects.

VR presentation is one of the best cases for skill transfer for/from real-life presentations. In fact, some people find it easier to try public speech in VR, and then they are more confident in real life. As with everything, practising will help in mastering the skill of presentation. As you develop a routine, using the hardware and the controls will become "automatic", and you can focus on the presentation and providing an overall engaging experience to the audience.

Having made many VR presentations, especially room scale VR, the old adage that practice makes a man perfect is very true. When to speak, with what intensity, with what tone, and how much to speak, pointing at the scene space that you are referring to- all these aspects are critical for the audience to stay engaged. Planning which mode of communication- haptic, audio or visual, and using them smartly to drive home the message becomes an important aspect of how you simplify context for the audience. The VR world is by its own nature very fuzzy and people find it difficult to get a big picture, especially the C suit leaders. They will also be constrained by time. So getting everything right the first time and every time is very important.

Make sure you speak to the audience as engagingly and energetically as possible. To do so, you should gaze at different avatars in the audience and tilt your head and body towards different participants as you speak. Make sure you use your hands for extra non-verbal communication and avoid being static. Virtual handshakes are great! If the stage setup allows, walk around, point at people and requisites, and point at parts of the slides and presentations. If you use a headset with face and eye-tracking, such as Quest Pro, and if the platform supports it, that adds a lot to the expressivity of your avatar. Having full-body tracking (Vive trackers or MOCOPI) available on top of that would be an advantage for more non-verbal expression.

In VR presentations, visual aids should enhance your narrative without overwhelming the audience. Use clear slides or 3D models, positioned strategically to direct attention smoothly between points. This approach not only maintains engagement but also demonstrates a well-structured presentation. Proper use of visual aids highlights your organizational skills and confidence, ensuring your message is delivered effectively and professionally.

Saber expresar nuestras ideas es una herramienta poderosa a la hora de tener reuniones con clientes. Saber expresarnos sin tener muletillas, sin trabarnos o contradecirnos. A mí me sirvió mucho exponer ante público en conferencias y eventos de tecnología.

Yo siempre muestro mis desarrollos a personas que me darán una opinión constructiva. No se lo puedes mostrar a una persona que te va decir que todo esta bonito, tienes que entender que tu estas enamorado de tu idea y piensas que es la mejor, eso a algunas personas les juega en contra. Yo recomiendo siempre mostrar la experiencia, que la usen personas de distintas edades, géneros, tamaños, etc.

A mi me sirvió mucho participar en exposiciones o eventos, sobre todo hablar de esta tecnología como uno de los principales expertos de mi país ante militares de alto rango en un evento. Quería que entiendan esta tecnología y como le podría sacar provecho, mostrar los beneficios y como podría ahorrarles presupuesto al Ejército de mi país. Creo que es el mayor numero de personas que me han escuchado, estaba nervioso por que antes de mi expuso un militar que había puesto un satélite en el espacio, pero me ha servido siempre para decirme que si ya pasé ese nivel puedo ante menos gente.
