ABSTRACT
As an alternative to enhance user’s experience in VR contents, we propose KABUTO, a head mounted haptic display designed to induce upper-body movement by the application of kinesthetic feedback to the head. KABUTO can provide impact and resistance by using flywheels and brakes in response to various head movements, as extensive head movements lead to dynamic movement throughout the upper body. We have also designed an application which enables the user to become a rhinoceros beetle.The user can feel the weight of the swinging horn or the impact of the horn flinging object. In the demonstration of it, we observed that KABUTO makes users move their upper body aggressively.

Pointing by gaze, head, and foot in a head-mounted display
ETRA '19: Proceedings of the 11th ACM Symposium on Eye Tracking Research & ApplicationsThis paper presents a Fitts' law experiment and a clinical case study performed with a head-mounted display (HMD). The experiment compared gaze, foot, and head pointing. With the equipment setup we used, gaze was slower than the other pointing methods, ...
Infrared bundle adjusting and clustering method for head-mounted display and Leap Motion calibration
Leap Motion has become widely used due to its ability to recognize intuitive hand gestures or accurate finger positions. Attaching a Leap Motion to a virtual reality head-mounted display (VR HMD) is highly interoperable with virtual objects in virtual ...
Enhancing Presence in Head-Mounted Display Environments by Visual Body Feedback Using Head-Mounted Cameras
CW '09: Proceedings of the 2009 International Conference on CyberWorldsA fully-articulated visual representation of a user in an immersive virtual environment (IVE) can enhance the user's subjective sense of feeling present in the virtual world. Usually this requires the user to wear a full-body motion capture suit to ...
