Multimodal Embodied Interface for Levitation and Navigation in 3D Space

Published: 15 October 2016 Publication History

Abstract

A multimodal embodied interface for 3D navigation was designed as a modular wearable. The user is suspended with a harness controlled by a mechanical Motion Base. This allows both physical and virtual displacement within an immersive virtual environment. Through a combination of passive and active modalities, users are enabled to fly at their own will.
