Description for Human Walking in Virtual Environments
Hardcover. Exploring the relationship between the human sense of locomotion in virtual environments and the broader scientific and engineering literature on human locomotion and locomotion interfaces, this volume surveys both past and recent developments in the field. Editor(s): Steinicke, Frank; Visell, Yon; Campos, Jennifer; Lecuyer, Anatole. Num Pages: 412 pages, 12 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: TJFM; UYV. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 242 x 160 x 28. Weight in Grams: 752.
This book presents a survey of past and recent developments on human walking in virtual environments with an emphasis on human self-motion perception, the multisensory nature of experiences of walking, conceptual design approaches, current technologies, and applications. The use of Virtual Reality and movement simulation systems is becoming increasingly popular and more accessible to a wide variety of research fields and applications. While, in the past, simulation technologies have focused on developing realistic, interactive visual environments, it is becoming increasingly obvious that our everyday interactions are highly multisensory. Therefore, investigators are beginning to understand the critical importance of developing and ... Read more
