Area of Science:

  • Human-computer interaction
  • Psychophysics
  • Virtual Reality

Background:

  • Vection, the illusion of self-motion, is a form of spatial disorientation.
  • Virtual Reality Vection System (VRVS) uses VR technology to induce vection.
  • Spatial disorientation is a critical concern in aviation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a quantitative psychophysical pilot study of vection.
  • To investigate the relationship between visual stimuli and vection perception.
  • To demonstrate the feasibility of using VR for remote research.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a Vive Pro Eye VR headset for vection stimuli presentation.
  • Employed computer-controlled visual stimuli with varying dot motion patterns.
  • Measured vection duration and magnitude using button presses and linear potentiometers.

Main Results:

  • Vection perception showed a systematic psychophysical dependence on the number of uniformly moving dots.
  • Results demonstrated a quantifiable relationship between stimulus motion and vection.
  • The study successfully executed a quantitative psychophysical pilot study of vection.

Conclusions:

  • The VRVS effectively utilized consumer-grade VR for a quantitative psychophysical study.
  • Virtual reality technology is poised to support remote, computer-controlled research.
  • This study highlights the potential of VR in spatial disorientation research.
