Paving the way into vir­tu­al real­i­ty — a tran­si­tion in five stages

Daniel Sproll and Jacob Freiberg revealed their poster and abstract at IEEE 3DUI. They present a frame­work for improv­ing immer­sion in Virtual Reality through use of an excit­ing and self ini­ti­at­ed tran­si­tion from the real world into the vir­tu­al envi­ron­ment. For more infor­ma­tion take a look at theposter and the two page abstract.

Do walk­ing motions enhance visu­al­ly induced self-motion illu­sions in vir­tu­al reality?

Jacob Freiberg pre­sent­ed an exper­i­men­tal inves­ti­ga­tion of the rela­tion­ship between bio­me­chan­i­cal­ly induced self motion illu­sions and visu­al­ly induced self motion illu­sions. He was nom­i­nat­ed for best poster award at IEEE VR. The poster and the two page abstract can be viewed here.
