“…The correlation between SS and CL (r s = .51) was positively significant in the IVR condition, suggesting that the experience of SS increases as CL increases. This finding is generally in line with prior studies that argue that CL is a primary cause of SS and that levels of immersion moderate their relationship (Venkatakrishnan et al, 2020;Sepich et al, 2022;Breves and Stein, 2023). The finding could also imply that tasks requiring higher cognitive resources might exacerbate SS in IVR, thereby negatively impacting performance.…”

“…The interplay between CL and SS in IVR has not been conclusively explained. Some findings have suggested a negative association, arguing that higher concentration and CL render resources away from negative symptoms, leading to less SS (Bos, 2015;Venkatakrishnan et al, 2020). Relatedly, studies have reported a negligible impact of CL on sickness (Milleville-Pennel and Charron, 2015).…”

“…More recently, studies have generally argued for a positive association. Using a Structural Equation Modeling approach, Venkatakrishnan et al (2020) found that increased control over self-motion stimuli in a driver simulation increased cognitive load, increasing SS. Similar tendencies of a positive association have been found by Ha (2020), Meusel (2014), Venkatakrishnan et al (2019), and Venkatakrishnan et al (2023).…”

This study investigates the effects of immersion on spatial ability in virtual reality (VR) and the influence of sense of presence, simulation sickness, and cognitive load. Participants performed a spatial ability task using a head-mounted display in an immersive or non-immersive VR condition. Contrary to expectations, immersive VR did not enhance spatial performance compared to non-immersive VR. Interestingly, cognitive load was positively associated with spatial ability in immersive VR but negatively associated with it in non-immersive VR. A higher sense of presence was associated with increased spatial ability for both conditions. Predictably, simulation sickness negatively impacted spatial ability in the more immersive condition. Sense of presence and simulation sickness correlated in the immersive condition but not in the non-immersive condition, indicating the importance of immersion as a covariate. These findings highlight a complex interplay of factors in immersive environments, challenging existing assumptions and providing insights for designing spatial environments in immersive and non-immersive virtual environments.

“…The environment is semi-immersive, receiving input only from standard devices (keyboard, mouse, and optionally a joystick). Since the system can be used for long periods, this characteristic may prevent or reduce cybersickness, which is commonly caused by the use of special devices, such as head-mounted displays (HMDs) (VENKATAKRISHNAN; BHARGAVA, et al, 2020;ANARAKY, et al, 2020).…”

2D–3D spatial registration for remote inspection of power substations

Remote inspection and supervisory control are critical features for smart factories, civilian surveillance, power systems, among other domains. For reducing the time to make decisions, operators must have both a high situation awareness, implying a considerable amount of data to be presented, and minimal sensory load. Recent research suggests the adoption of computer vision techniques for automatic inspection, as well as virtual reality (VR) as an alternative to traditional SCADA interfaces. Nevertheless, although VR may provide a good representation of a substation's state, it lacks some real-time information, available from online field cameras and microphones. Since these two sources of information (VR and field information) are not integrated into one single solution, we miss the opportunity of using VR as a SCADA-aware remote inspection tool, during operation and disaster-response routines. This work discusses a method to augment virtual environments of power substations with field images, enabling operators to promptly see a virtual representation of the inspected area's surroundings. The resulting environment is integrated with an image-based state inference machine, continuously checking the inferred states against the ones reported by the SCADA database. Whenever a discrepancy is found, an alarm is triggered and the virtual camera can be immediately teleported to the affected region, speeding up system reestablishment. The solution is based on a clientserver architecture and allows multiple cameras deployed in multiple substations. Our results concern the quality of the 2D-3D registration and the rendering framerate for a simple scenario. The collected quantitative metrics suggest good camera pose estimations and registrations, as well as an arguably optimal rendering framerate for substations' equipment inspection.

“…classified exposure duration as a key VR task component that impacts cybersickness. Prolonged immersion in VR is associated with increases in cybersickness severity Venkatakrishnan et al, 2020). This has been established using subjective assessments of cybersickness, such as the SSQ , as well as objective estimators of cybersickness, including postural sway .…”
