“…Previous studies have argued that physiological data should be collected by considering measures to detect and remove motion artifacts [73,74]. Particularly, the potential impacts of participants' head/body movements on their physiological data would be more critical in VR conditions [75]. However, this study recorded only unusual and large movements to remove potential artifacts, whereas minor movements were not recorded.…”

“…Additionally, users may dawn haptic vests [15] that deliver positional haptic feedback and prototypical masks that emulate smells [107]. Healthcare VR applications include sensors that measure galvanic skin response [58], electrodermal activity [4], heart rate [137], skin temperature [106] and measure brain waves (HMDs with EEGs for brain-computer interfacing) [99]. This plethora of sensors and feedback devices facilitate immersive digital interactions in VR, but also pose significant privacy concerns due to the potential exposure of sensitive user data, such as biometrics, behavior, identity, and real-world surroundings [40,90,92,143].…”

The adoption of virtual reality (VR) technologies has rapidly gained momentum in recent years as companies around the world begin to position the so-called ''metaverse'' as the next major medium for accessing and interacting with the internet. While consumers have become accustomed to a degree of data harvesting on the web, the real-time nature of data sharing in the metaverse indicates that privacy concerns are likely to be even more prevalent in the new ''Web 3.0.'' Research into VR privacy has demonstrated that a plethora of sensitive personal information is observable by various would-be adversaries from just a few minutes of telemetry data. On the other hand, we have yet to see VR parallels for many privacy-preserving tools aimed at mitigating threats on conventional platforms. This paper aims to systematize knowledge on the landscape of VR privacy threats and countermeasures by proposing a comprehensive taxonomy of data attributes, protections, and adversaries based on the study of 74 collected publications. We complement our qualitative discussion with a statistical analysis of the risk associated with various data sources inherent to VR in consideration of the known attacks and defenses. By focusing on highlighting the clear outstanding opportunities, we hope to motivate and guide further research into this increasingly important field.

Healthcare VR applications also include sensors that measure galvanic skin response [54], electrodermal activity [4], heart rate [121], skin temperature [96] and measure superficial brain waves (EEGs built in HMDs for brain computer interfacing) [89], [141], [13].…”

“…As health sensors like EEGs make their way into commercial-grade HMDs [89], the possibilities of VR (and privileged adversaries) expand dramatically. With these sensors, applications can adjust immersive experiences based on physiological signals that meet users' particular needs in real-time [33], [5], [96], [141] and can help users with rehabilitation treatments [115], [4], [146]. Such improvements, however, will also expose critically sensitive user information, such as physical and mental health conditions [33], [141], [146], behavior [121], [5], [13], language semantics [39], [122], and other sensitive PII like credit cards, PINs, and locations or persons known to the user [72].…”
