Effect of a Stereoscopic Movie on the Correlation between Head Acceleration and Body Sway
نویسندگان
چکیده
Visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) is caused by sensory conflict, the disagreement between vergence and visual accommodation while observing stereoscopic images. VIMS can be measured by psychological and physiological methods. We quantitatively measured the head acceleration and body sway before and during exposure to a conventional 3D movie. The subjects wore a head mount display and maintained the Romberg posture for the first 60 s and a wide stance (midlines of the heels 20 cm apart) for the next 60 s. Head acceleration was measured using an Active Tracer with 50 Hz sampling. The Simulator Sickness Questioner (SSQ) was completed immediately afterward. For the SSQ sub-scores and each index for stabilograms, we employed two-way ANOVA with leg postures and presence/absence of stereoscopic images as factors. Moreover, we assumed that the input signal was the head acceleration in the transfer system to control the body sway and estimate the transfer function.

Bioresponse to Stereoscopic Movies Presented via a Head-mounted Display
Three-dimensional (3-D) television sets are already available in the market and are becoming increasingly popular among consumers. The 3-D movies they play, however, induce the negative sensations of asthenopia and motion sickness in some viewers. Visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) is caused by sensory conflict, i.e., a disagreement between vergence and visual accommodation during the view...
متن کاملComparison in Degree of the Motion Sickness Induced by a 3-D Movie on an LCD and an HMD
Three-dimensional (3D) television sets are already on the market and are becoming increasingly popular among consumers. Watching stereoscopic 3D movies, though, can produce certain adverse affects such as asthenopia and motion sickness. Visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) is considered to be caused by an increase in visual-vestibular sensory conflict while viewing stereoscopic images. VIMS ...

Purpose: Wearing high-heel shoes has become a habit among women of the present era. Statistics show that around 60% of women wear high-heel shoes at least thrice a week. High-heel shoes cause postural changes and damage body joints. The present study was conducted to assess the effect of high-heel shoes on the head protrusion angle. Methods: This study was conducted at University of Social Wel...
متن کاملEvaluation of Body Sway and the Relevant Dynamics While Viewing a Three-Dimensional Movie on a Head-Mounted Display by Using Stabilograms
The viewers of three-dimensional (3D) movies often complain of blurring and bleeding. They sometimes experience visually induced motion sickness (VIMS). In this study, the effect of VIMS on body sway was examined using stabilograms. We measured the sway in the center of gravity before and during the exposure to images projected on a head-mounted display (HMD). While viewing, the subjects were i...
