A User Interface for Walking on VR Space by Swinging Arms and its Evaluation


In the VR content, one of the main reasons for damaging immersive experience is VR sickness. It is well known that exercising user’s arms or legs is effective to control symptoms of VR sickness. In this paper, we propose a new method that wraps the sensor around the wrists and allows natural arm swinging. We also evaluate how to swing users’ arms and walk around virtual space from its walking speed, routes and different types of sensors.
