The Influence of Spatial Awareness on VR: Investigating the influence of the familiarity and awareness of content of the real space to the VR
AIVR 2019: Proceedings of the 2019 3rd International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality

A common practice of VR experiments is to create a 3D model replica of the experience room to ease the transition of the real world to the virtual environment. However, the biggest issue with this method is that different spaces would need lots of ...
Towards Balancing VR Immersion and Bystander Awareness
ISS

Head-mounted displays (HMDs) increase immersion into virtual worlds. The problem is that this limits headset users' awareness of bystanders: headset users cannot attend to bystanders' presence and activities. We call this the HMD boundary. We explore how ...
