Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract When head-mounted display (HMD) users move their heads during virtual reality (VR), display lag will generate differences between their virtual and physical head pose (DVP). Previously, we have shown that objective estimates of DVP can be used to predict the severity of user experiences of cybersickness. Here we examined whether DVP also predicts: (1) the probability of them becoming sick during VR; and (2) the time of their first sickness symptoms. Our participants made continuous nodding head movements while viewing a virtual room under different levels of experimentally imposed display lag (ranging from 0 to 250 ms on top of the baseline system lag). While each trial could last up to 3 min, they were instructed to drop out as soon as they felt any sickness. We found that: (1) the self-similarity of the participant’s DVP in the first 30 s of the trial predicted whether they would become sick (or remain well) later on; and (2) their dropout times were predicted by the spatial magnitudes of their DVP. Consistent with past findings, the severity of their cybersickness was again shown to depend on both the spatial magnitudes and the temporal dynamics of their DVP. In the future, it might therefore be possible to apply these DVP findings to warn HMD users about the likely imminent onset of cybersickness during normal (i.e., non-experimental) VR exposures.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
