New research reveals that synchronized foot vibrations and posture significantly enhance virtual walking experiences for stationary observers, improving self-motion, walking sensation, and embodiment. Standing posture was most effective, but sitting and lying positions also benefited from synchronized vibrations. These findings have practical applications in virtual reality (VR) for training, rehabilitation, and entertainment, offering improved immersion and realism even for users with physical limitations.New research reveals that synchronized foot vibrations and posture significantly enhance virtual walking experiences for stationary observers, improving self-motion, walking sensation, and embodiment.
