Background Treadmills are often used in research, clinical practice, and training.
Biomechanical investigations comparing treadmill and overground running report …

Locomotion produces full-field optic flow that often dominates the visual motion inputs to an
observer. The perception of optic flow is in turn important for animals to guide their heading …

This paper investigates how the size of virtual space and objects within it affect the threshold
range of relative translation gains, a Redirected Walking (RDW) technique that scales the …

Virtual reality technologies are actively applied for the organization of professional training
in various industries, as well as in distance learning. However, numerous studies show the …

In this study, we explore how spatial configurations can be reflected in determining the
threshold range of Relative Translation Gains (RTGs), a translation gain-based Redirected …

Global optical flow characterizes the overall motion while local optical flow characterizes the
individual's movement. Therefore, both global and local optical flow is important to analyze …

This research presents a Virtual Reality (VR) bike exergame system consisting of a stationed
road bike, four novel virtual steering methods, two in-game superhuman speed reward …

The perception of geometric cues in virtual spaces differs from that in actual spaces due to
the reduced amount of information available in virtual spaces. To investigate the perception …

Exploring the great outdoors offers physical and mental health benefits. Hiking is healthy,
provides a sense of accomplishment, and offers an opportunity to relax. However, a nature …

This study evaluated the effects of reading text on an optical see-through head-mounted
display during treadmill walking in a virtual environment. Thirty participants were recruited to …
