| Abstract(in English) | Walkthrough is one of applications of virtual reality. A walkthrough system requires a locomotion interface so that we can move around in a virtual environment. It must be easy to understand and use the locomotion interface. The locomotion interface based on walking will have the advantage of easiness of understanding and use because walking is most fundamental means of locomotion for human. But if the virtual environment is large, we must walk for a long time and we will get tired. When we must walk for long distance, to move in high speed will be better for less fatigue and shorter time. It is desirable for us to control moving speed from very high speed to low speed. In this paper, we discuss the means of control of speed for the locomotion interface. First, we analyze walking and we show that the step length is changed for the pitch. Based on this result, we propose the means of control of speed by pitch-controlled step length. We show this means has better performance in accuracy and time than means of control of speed by constant step length. |
