1. A computer implemented method comprising:

  • logging user actions in a virtual reality (VR) system, wherein the user actions comprise (i) a path traveled by a user in the VR system, and (ii) user interactions with objects in the VR system and wherein the VR system is an immersive VR system that relies on polygonal models and utilizes a headset that immerses the user in a VR environment, the headset having sensors configured to determine which direction the user'"'"'s head is facing, and wherein logging user interactions comprises monitoring whether a user looks at an object at least in part based on a direction the user'"'"'s head is facing;

    aggregating logged user actions over a first user and a second user;

    deriving modifications to the VR system based at least in part on the aggregated logged user actions, the modifications to the VR system comprising modifying an appearance of objects shown in the VR system, wherein modifying an appearance of objects shown in the VR system comprises rendering objects with a low number of user interactions at a lower visual fidelity than objects with a high number of user interactions, and wherein deriving modifications to the VR system based at least in part on the aggregated logged actions comprises applying crowd-guided assistance provided by a crowd assistance platform configured to allow a worker to share a request to a plurality of distributed experts and to allow an expert from the plurality of distributed experts to respond;

    receiving data representing a request from the user to view an object of interest;

    providing, via the virtual reality system, a 3D image of the object of interest;

    receiving input from the user representing a specified area of interest associated with the object of interest; and

    providing an enhanced interactive 3D image of at least a portion of the object of interest based on the received input.
