Metodología para el diseño de interfaz web 3D; recorrido virtual web del “Hospital de Brigada Galápagos nº 11” de Riobamba.

Abstract

This research was intended to develop a methodology for the 3D web design interface, for the virtual web browsing of the Hospital Brigada Galápagos Nº 11, from the Chimborazo province. It was started off by complying information about methodologies existing for the 3D web design interface, which were analyzed in order to determine a new methodology in regarding this research consisting of five stages as follow: the analysis, planning, design, testing and publishing. The analysis phase was devoted to collect and analyzed the information of the Brigada Blindada Galápagos Nº 11 Hospital. In the planning phase, a visual structure of the hospital as the web browsing, the information plot and the web software was determined. The design phase was devoted to choose the web visual interface structure, in which the modeling of the virtual web browsing was carried out with a 360° animation for the 3D web interface implementation. The testing phase was devoted to test the web interface functioning in order to prevent fails and ensure it works properly. In the publishing stage, the 3d web design interface was upload. This study measured the acceptability level of the methodology used for the virtual web browsing of the Hospital Brigada Galápagos Nº 11, in regarding the realism, usefulness and accessibility. The study results reveal and acceptability level of 87%, so that, the study hypotheses could be validated and also allowed to conclude with the appreciation that the methodology used favor the realism of 3D web design interface, as well as the three stages of research implementation lead on to the user satisfaction therefore it is advisable to recommend the use of this methodology for the 3D web interface design.
