| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Traveling on foot is the most intuitive way for locomotion. People often feel that sense of distance or direction while walking is much better than that while riding on a vehicle. Infinite surface driven by actuators is an ideal device for creation of sense of walking. We selected a torus-shaped surface to realize the locomotion interface. Infinite surface is generated by the motion of the treadmills. The walker can go to any direction while his/her position is fixed in the real world. An image of the virtual space is displayed in the head-mounted display corresponding with the motion of the walker. The device was applied to evacuation simulator.
