Abstract: This paper aims to evaluate the comfort of wearing virtual reality (VR) devices using a popular multi-criteria decision-making technique, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP),which systematically organizes and simplifies complex decision-making issues by breaking them down into more manageable components. A hierarchy model was developed through factor analysis and the Delphi method, comprising a primary goal (comfort of VR devices), six main criteria (skin friendliness, breathability, weightiness, stability, tenderness and fit ), and twenty sub-criteria. The paper details the methodology employed, including the construction of a pairwise comparison matrix and the assessment of consistency. The robustness of this approach was verified via a case study. This research introduces a novel methodology for assessing VR device comfort and prioritizing the elements related to this aspect. The findings offer significant insights for manufacturers by identifying specific aspects for product design enhancement.
