An exploring of the impact on VR sickness by active or passive movements of the foot

Abstract

It has already been proved that WIP (walking-in-space) is used to reduce the effects of VR sickness. Although WIP systems provide a sense of movement, it is easily to cause fatigue that users always lift their legs up and down. Well in this paper we want to find out whether it is effective to reduces VR sickness by cycling exercise on both legs like a WIP when riding an exercise bike. In addition, we verify whether the bike can reduce VR sickness by moving legs with the motor within the exercise bike and by this way to reduce the fatigue caused by WIP.
