Flying in virtual reality (VR) using standard handheld controllers can be cumbersome and
contribute to unwanted side effects such as motion sickness and disorientation. This article …

Novel input methods for game design often excite users, especially if they extend the way
one interacts with the system. Electromyography (EMG) has the inherent potential to provide …

Many studies have proposed different ways of supporting flying in embodied virtual reality
(VR) interfaces with limited success. Our research explores the usage of a user's lower body …

Surreal experience in virtual reality (VR) occurs when visual experience is accompanied by
congruent somatosensation. Thus, VR contents that require physical actions are often …

When users in virtual reality cannot physically walk and self-motions are instead only
visually simulated, spatial updating is often impaired. In this paper, we report on a study that …

We propose an embodied interface that allows both physical and virtual displacement within
an Immersive Virtual Environment (IVE). It consists of a modular wearable used to control a …

Advancement in technology has made Virtual Reality (VR) increasingly portable, affordable
and accessible to a broad audience. However, large scale VR locomotion still faces major …

Simulating the experience of flight is a key objective of virtual reality (VR) technology. To
enhance the sense of flying and immersion, we developed Drone Rider, a VR system that …
