Framing Effects
Static visual frame of reference in a VR environment can help users orient themselves and reduce motion sickness.
Locomotion Techniques
Teleportation or other indirect movement methods can minimize the physical visual disconnect that causes VR sickness.
Hydration
Staying hydrated may alleviate some of the symptoms associated with VR sickness, such as headaches and nausea.
Breaks between sessions
Taking regular breaks helps to prevent VR sickness by allowing the user's senses and cognitive functions to recalibrate.
Motion Sickness
Users may experience nausea, dizziness or headaches due to the disparity between visual motion and physical motion in VR.
Ginger
Ingesting ginger can help reduce nausea; a common remedy for VR sickness based on its antiemetic properties.
Postural Instability
Unsteadiness while standing or moving in a VR environment can lead to increases in motion sickness symptoms.
Field of View
Narrowing the field of view during rapid movement in VR can help to reduce the effects of motion sickness.
Adjustable Settings
Customizing VR settings such as motion sensitivity and display parameters can help to mitigate symptoms of VR sickness.
Visual Fatigue
Prolonged VR usage can cause eye strain and discomfort, resulting from overuse of the eye muscles.
Acclimatization
Gradually increasing time spent in VR can help users adapt to the virtual environment and lessen sickness.
