| Abstract(in English) | The head mounted display (HMD) is often used to virtual reality systems because of the good immersion feelling into the virtual space. But the field of view in the HMD is not so wide, and we focused on the sense of direction in such a narrow field of view environment. The cuc of the scnse of direction is consists of visual and nonvisual information. The visual information contains a static image and an optical flow. The nonvisual information contains a vestibular sensation and a somesthesia of neck and body. We made some changes on the quality of the visual information, an existence of the knowledge of the view and the relationship between the visual and nonvisual information. As the result, it was important that the knowledge of the view on the sense of direction. And the optical flow in the HMD was not so effective on the making of the sense of direction. |
