Understanding the Effects of Tablet-based Virtual Reality (VR) Viewing Systems for an Inclusive, Cross-device Virtual Environment
Wearing a virtual reality head-mounted display (VR-HMD) disconnects users from the real- world context that they are physically in. While one solution is to have everyone in the room wear VR-HMDs, this is not inclusive for all users. For example, children are not recommended to wear VR-HMDs due to …
