Human Walking in Virtual Environments ― Perception, Technology, and Applications

Exploring the relationship between the human sense of locomotion in virtual environments and the broader scientific and engineering literature on human locomotion and locomotion interfaces, this volume surveys both past and recent developments in the field.

Frank Steinicke is a professor of computer science in media at the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Human-Computer-Media at the University of Wurzburg. He received his Ph.D. in computer science from the University of Munster.Yon Visell is assistant professor at Drexel University in Philadelphia, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. His research concerns engineering and scientific aspects of haptic and multisensory interaction in virtual and augmented reality environments. Dr. Campos is a Scientist at Toronto Rehab where her research focus is on multisensory integration, perception-action coupling and visuomotor control. Anatole Lecuyer is a senior researcher at Inria in Rennes, France. His research concerns Virtual Reality, 3D User Interfaces, Haptic Feedback and Brain-Computer Interfaces.
