Toyohashi Univ: 360 degree walking VR system: walking sensation
-I feel like walking while sitting-
Toyohashi University of Technology:
I feel like walking while sitting.
We have developed a 360 degree walking VR system.
The vibration is presented on the sole of the foot in accordance with the 360-degree all-sky movie.
This vibration improved the texture of the ground and the feeling of walking.
We will propose a virtual sightseeing experience.
“Visual SLAM technology”
Estimate the self-position from the video, and find the moving speed and distance in the video.
Vibration is presented to the sole of the foot according to this movement trajectory.
Walking on hard floors or snow, etc.
When the ground and the sole vibration match,
The texture of the ground and the feeling of walking have improved.
This will enhance the realism of the remote sightseeing experience.
In the future, we will develop a technology to automatically generate a sole vibration pattern from moving images.
New switch
