Abstract

A previous study, Young et al. [2014], explored comparisons between cost-differentiated head-mounted displays for the evaluation of various perception and action tasks. One of the comparisons in that work was egocentric distance estimation comparison using an Nvis SX 60 head-mounted display (HMD) and an Oculus Rift. This poster abstract supplements that study results with an additional HMD for evaluation of egocentric distance estimation task, an Nvis SX111. We find that performance of the Nvis SX111 is comparable to that of the Nvis SX60 in Young et al. [2014], which was significantly more compressed than the Oculus Rift.

A Comparison of Distance Estimation in HMD-Based Virtual Environments with Different HMD-Based Conditions

Underestimation of egocentric distances in immersive virtual environments using various head-mounted displays (HMDs) has been a puzzling topic of research interest for several years. As more commodity-level systems become available to developers, it is ...
Egocentric distance perception in real and HMD-based virtual environments: the effect of limited scanning method
APGV '11: Proceedings of the ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Applied Perception in Graphics and Visualization

We conducted four experiments on egocentric depth perception using blind walking with a restricted scanning method in both the real and a virtual environment. Our viewing condition in all experiments was monocular. We varied the field of view (real), ...

Abstract
Head mounted displays (HMD) are becoming ubiquitous. Simulator sickness has been an issue since the first simulators and HMDs were created. As computational power and display capabilities increase, so does their utilization in technologies such ...
