Numan, N. (author)Virtual reality (VR) creates an exceptional experience in which users can explore virtual environments. Wearing a head‐mounted display (HMD), users are able to observe a virtual world that is rendered based on their physical movement and actions. A common solution for capturing the visual and geometric information needed for the construction of...report 2020

Gunkel, S.N.B. (author)Virtual Reality (VR) applications are currently suffering several gaps to allow a full breakthrough in the consumer market. One aspect is the social isolation. Many VR experiences do not represent yourself or other users, making it lonely rather than a shared experience. VR applications that do offer a user representation mostly use artificial...conference paper 2019

Bos, J.E. (author), van den Berg-Kroon, E.C.M. (author), Houben, M.M.J. (author), Kuiper, O.X. (author)Car handling, and hence, safety, is affected by the way we estimate speed. Speed, however, is often underestimated in degraded visual environments, including virtual environments such as driving simulators. In simulators the visual and physical motion are typically incongruent as limited by quality and amplitude, respectively, which may cause a...article 2019

Gunkel, S.N.B. (author), Dohmen, M.D.W. (author), Stokkinq, H. (author), Niamut, O. (author)VR experiences are becoming more social, but many social VR systems represent users as artificial avatars. For use cases such as VR conferencing, photo-realistic representations may be preferred. In this paper, we present ongoing research into social VR experiences with photo-realistic representations of participants and present a web-based...conference paper 2019

Helping behavior in a virtual crisis situation: Effects of safety awareness and crisis communicationStubbé, H.E. (author), van Emmerik, M.L. (author), Kerstholt, J.H. (author)Incident evaluations show that bystanders tend to help: they do not wait for professionals to arrive, but act as required by the situation at hand. In the present study, we investigated how safety awareness (induced before an accident happened) and providing a course of action by emergency services affect helping behavior after witnessing a...article 2015
