Using Immersive Virtual Reality to Examine How Visual and Tactile Cues Drive the Material-Weight Illusion

Abstract: Weight illusions provide a compelling demonstration that prior experience affects perception. Here we investigated how the expectation-inducing modality affected the Material-Weight Illusion (MWI), where dense-looking objects feel lighter than less dense-looking objects. Participants lifted equally-weighted polystyrene, cork, and granite cubes whilst viewing computer-generated images of the cubes in virtual reality (VR). The representation of the object in VR was manipulated to create four illusion-inducing se… Show more

“…Independent testing has supported the accuracy of the trackers for accurate visualization, even in more vigorous activities (Merker et al, 2023). and granite (unaltered density 2.67g/cm3) (Figure 4)will be used to elicit the MWI (as used in Naylor et al, 2022). The three boxes (5 x 5 x 5 cm) have been hollowed out and lead weights have been placed inside to ensure they all weigh exactly 123g (+75g).…”
