{"pk":28998,"title":"Spatial Updating Based on Visually Signaled Self-motion in Virtual Reality","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Spatial updating during self-motion can be effortless, however, in virtual reality if there are inconsistent cues about self-motion, spatial updating of egocentric representations of object locations usually relies on perceived scene motion orimagery of a spatial situation model. Strong presence and illusory self-motion with a quick onset are presumed necessaryfor effortless spatial updating if self-motion is signaled visually only. In the reported experiment, participants performedspatial updating compensating for visually signaled forward self-motion in a virtual scene presented in a head-mounteddisplay. Higher visual detail in the scene improved performance only slightly. Overall, the result pattern suggests thatparticipants did not experience illusory self-motion that could support effortless updating despite more favorable conditionsthan in a previous study. Several modifications to the experiment are discussed as further tests of conditions fosteringeffortless updating in virtual reality.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Poster Presentations with Abstracts","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2mg194rb","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Georg","middle_name":"","last_name":"Jahn","name_suffix":"","institution":"Chemnitz University of Technology","department":""},{"first_name":"Manuel","middle_name":"","last_name":"Dudczig","name_suffix":"","institution":"Institute for Machine Tools and Production Processes","department":""},{"first_name":"Philipp","middle_name":"","last_name":"Klimant","name_suffix":"","institution":"Institute for Machine Tools and Production Processes","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2019-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/28998/galley/18869/download/"}]}
