Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE),Heart Rate (HR),Technology Acceptance

Summary

This pilot cohort study aimed to investigate the immediate impact of Virtual Reality (VR)
 exergaming on heart rate (HR), rate of perceived exertion (RPE), and technology acceptance
 using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) in healthy adults.
 Participants engaged in a 20-minute session of VR exergaming using the Meta Oculus Quest 2™
 headset. HR and RPE were measured at baseline, during, and after the intervention, while
 technology acceptance was assessed pre- and post-intervention using the UTAUT questionnaire.
 
 The results showed that VR exergaming increased HR while maintaining perceived exertion at
 low to moderate levels. Technology acceptance also improved significantly across all domains
 measured by UTAUT, with particularly notable increases in Performance Expectancy and Effort
 Expectancy. The findings suggest that VR exergaming is an effective method to enhance
 physical activity, motivation, and engagement, providing promising support for its use as a
 rehabilitation tool for individuals struggling with adherence and motivation.
