Improving Reliability of Virtual Collision Responses

Seungwon Do, Byungjoo Lee

Keywords: virtual reality, collision response, cue integration theory

Abstract: In virtual reality (VR), a user’s virtual avatar can interact with a virtual object by colliding with it. If collision responses do not occur in the direction that the user expects, the user experiences degradation of accuracy and precision in applications such as VR sports games. In determining the response of a virtual collision, existing physics engines have not considered the direction in which the user perceived and estimated the collision. Based on the cue integration theory, this study presents a statistical model explaining how users estimate the direction of a virtual collision from their body’s orientation and velocity vectors. The accuracy and precision of virtual collisions can be improved by 8.77
