The complex operating conditions of experiments and the diverse backgrounds of users make laboratories special, so it is important to ensure that experiments are conducted in a safe manner. In that case, understanding how people perceive the laboratory environment and objects is necessary. It is well known that vision is the most important means for humans receive information about their environment, and in many cases, it is also a reliable method for noticing dangers. In this study, virtual reality (VR) and eye tracking technology were combined to explore the characteristics of visual information distribution in the laboratory for different conditions and users with different backgrounds, with the aim of clarifying the impact of the environment and objects in the laboratory on human vision, improving laboratory design, reducing laboratory hazards, and accumulating basic knowledge of the laboratory.
