Virtual environment used in this study.

Four primary components of the interface: camera, virtual space, stimulus and gyro sensor. All the components act in coordination to create a convincing sliding motion simulation. To provide the participants with a means to interact with the virtual environments, we mapped the rotation of the virtual environment to the tablet’s gyro sensor, providing real-time rotational control of the virtual environment. We also implemented off-axis projection techniques to create a realistic projection of the box interior. The technique allows users to view the screen as if they are looking through a window and perceive more depth. The lighting was dynamically controlled to provide more visual fidelity.
