Research on the Design System of Bamboo-Woven Products Based on Traditional Bamboo-Weaving Craft VR Experience

Virtual reality (VR) is a simulated experience capable of replicating or creating an entirely new environment. Through VR experience, designers can learn bamboo-weaving techniques at a low cost and showcase their design models of bamboo-woven products virtually, allowing these products to be put into production after experience and evaluation. This study introduces novel techniques to transform and innovate traditional bamboo-woven products to establish a comprehensive VR-based product experience design system. This system follows a pioneering pathway, including the following steps: VR weaving skill experience, generative artificial intelligence design (AIGC)–driven bamboo design creativity, 3D modeling technology support, and VR product evaluation. Moreover, the framework conducts user experience research from three dimensions: visual design, system function design, and human–computer interaction design. Usability assessments and statistical analysis were employed before and after the VR experience to assess the system’s reliability. The findings indicate that designers and users can remarkably use and evaluate the new system, offering a practical technical pathway for the modern design exploration of traditional bamboo products.
