VISUAL CUES EFFECTS ON TEMPERATURE PERCEPTION
… but complimentary manner. We utilized the Oculus Rift to create a virtual environment that allowed us to control the visual cues of an objects’ temperature and a Peltier thermo-device to provide the tactile temperature stimuli. The results confirmed our initial expectation that participants …

Graph-Based Data Visualization in Virtual Reality: A Comparison of User Experiences
… a virtual reality (VR) environment using the Oculus Rift to look at our 3D animated chart, and a more traditional environment with a series of 2D paper charts. We concluded that for newcomers to VR, 2D charts are faster and more accurate. However, 3D visualizations are more engaging and are …

Assessment of a hand exoskeleton on proximal and distal training in virtual environments for robot mediated upper extremity rehabilitation
… the effect of immersion on performance using an Oculus Rift as an HMD compared to conventional projection displays. It is hypothesized that individuals with both proximal and complete distal hand control (HMWG) will see increased benefit during the Pick and Place Task than individuals without the …
