This second edition of a bestseller presents systematic and extensive coverage of the
primary areas of research and development within VE technology. It brings together a …

Vection is typically defined as the embodied illusion of self-motion in the absence of real
physical movement through space. Vection can occur in real-life situations (eg,'train illusion') …

Research on self-motion perception and simulation has traditionally focused on the
contribution of physical stimulus properties (“bottom-up factors”) using abstract stimuli. Here …

Walking is a fundamental physical activity in humans. Various virtual walking systems have
been developed using treadmill or leg-support devices. Using optic flow, foot vibrations …

While modern computer graphics and virtual reality (VR) simulations can have stunning
photorealism, they are often unable to provide a life-like and compelling sensation of moving …

Sensing the movements of the world and the objects within it appears to be a fundamental
job for our visual system. In rare cases of brain damage, we find that individuals lacking …

Illusions of self-movement (vection) can be used in virtual reality (VR) and other applications
to give users the embodied sensation that they are moving when physical movement is …

Can self-motion perception in virtual reality (VR) be enhanced by providing affordable, user-
powered minimal motion cueing? To investigate this, we compared the effect of different …

Illusory self-motion (known as vection) describes the sensation of ego-motion in the absence
of physical movement. Vection typically occurs in stationary observers being exposed to …

How can we convincingly simulate observer locomotion through virtual environments
without having to allow for full physical observer movement? That is, how can we best utilize …
