SuperDreamCity: An Immersive Virtual Reality Experience That Responds to Electrodermal Activity
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe an artistic exhibition that took place in our highly-immersive virtual-reality laboratory. We have allowed visitors to explore a virtual landscape based on the content of night dreams, where the navigation inside the landscape was based on an online feedback from their electrodermal response. We analyze a subset of the physiology data captured from participants and describe a new method for analyzing dynamic physiological experiences based on hidden Markov models.

The Responses of People to Virtual Humans in an Immersive Virtual Environment
This paper presents an experiment investigating the impact of behavior and responsiveness on social responses to virtual humans in an immersive virtual environment (IVE). A number of responses are investigated, including presence, copresence, and two physiological responses—heart rate and electrodermal activity (EDA). Our findings suggest that increasing agents’ responsiveness even on a simple ...
متن کاملNeurophysiology-based art in immersive virtual reality
Virtual reality (VR) art often deals with issues of embodied interaction vs. the fantasy of disembodiment: on the one hand, unlike traditional desktop computers, VR allows full-body interaction; on the other hand, VR allows one to experience disembodied presence in an immaterial, abstract space. Our recent research projects allowed us to reach a new extreme of such disembodied VR experiences, w...

متن کاملInvestigating the Impact of Interactive Immersive Virtual Reality Environments in Enhancing Task Performance in Online Engineering Design Activities
The objective of this paper is to test the hypothesis that immersive virtual reality environments such as those achievable through the head-mounted displays, enhance task performance in online engineering design activities. In this paper, task performance is measured by the time to complete a given engineering activity. Over the last decade, a wide range of virtual reality applications have bee...
متن کاملAstrojumper: Motivating Exercise with an Immersive Virtual Reality Exergame
We present the design and evaluation of Astrojumper, an immersive virtual reality exergame developed to motivate players to engage in rigorous, full-body exercise. We performed a user study with 30 people between the ages of 6 and 50 who played the game for 15 min. Regardless of differences in age, gender, activity level, and video game experience, participants rated Astrojumper extremely posit...
