Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research is to reveal the factor to transform body image including self body scale, size, shape, and position. This research focuses the interaction as well as integration between somatosensory and vision to realize the time continuous transformation of the user's body scale virtually. A physical constant such as gravity is a candidate contributing to changing the body image when the participant rides into the small biped robot. The result of walking experiment indicates that success rate under virtual 1G condition gets increased rather than the one under 4G condition. Also the visual feedback from the robot seems to result the biped walking behavior of the participant. This indicates the visual gravitational impression may contributes the dynamic body image transformation.
