Thirteenth International Conference on Design Principles & Practices

Abstract

VR (Online Reality) is regarded as an effective method for information communication and its application is widely increasing in the respective field in design. However, the influence of the correlation between perceptual information such as visual, olfaction, tactile, etc. constituting VR on the sense of presence is still unclear. The present research aims to verify the value of an evaluation model of perceptual information. It verifies the current state of cross-modal interactions (for example, modality of multiple sensory modalities such as visual sense and olfactory sense) in a VR environment. The evaluation model allows estimating the effectiveness of the perceptual information obtained from the cross-modal interactions that occur within the VR environment.
