Abstract

In this paper, the goal is to investigate how manipulating the camera can minimize motion sickness and maximize immersion when a user moves in a virtual environment that requires vertical movement. In general, since a user uses virtual reality in a flat space, the actual movement of the user and the virtual movement are different, resulting in sensory conflict, which has the possibility of causing virtual reality motion sickness. Therefore, we propose three powerful camera manipulation techniques, implement them, and then propose which model is most appropriate through user experiments.

본 논문에서는 수직이동이 필요한 가상환경을 사용자가 이동할 때, 어떻게 카메라를 조작하는 것이 멀미를 최소화하면서도 몰입감을 극대화할 수 있는지를 조사하는 것이 목표이다. 일반적으로 사용자는 평평한 공간에서 가상현실을 이용하므로, 사용자의 실제 이동과 가상에서의 이동이 달라져 감각 충돌이 일어나게 되고, 이는 가상현실 멀미를 유발할 가능성을 가진다. 그러므로 3가지의 유력한 카메라 조작기법을 제안하고, 이들을 구현한 후, 사용자 실험을 통해 가장 적절한 모델이 어떤 것인지를 제안하고자 한다.
