Abstract: The invention relates to a method for displaying a visual reference in an image displayed by a viewing device masking all or some of the field of view of a user, said viewing device further comprising at least one movement sensor. The method defines a virtual tube around a viewing axis of the user, the walls of the tube corresponding to the peripheral visual field of the user. The visual reference comprises at least one frame and lines, the lines being placed on the walls of the tube. In response to a measurement of a rotational movement, the lines are modified to make a rotational movement about the viewing axis that is opposite the measured rotational movement and the frame is modified to make a rotational movement perpendicular to the viewing axis also opposite the measured rotational movement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a visual comfort device comprising at least one inertial sensor, a processing unit and at least one screen. The screen is intended to be positioned laterally in a peripheral field of vision of a user. The processing unit is coupled to the inertial sensor and to the screen. The device is configured to display, on the screen, an inertial matrix representative of an inertial information item, the displayed inertial matrix comprising a maximum of sixteen points and/or line crossings.

Abstract: At least two vertically-oriented lighting columns are respectively arranged on opposite lateral sides of a space that is at least partially enclosed, so as to be perceptible within a viewer's peripheral vision without obstructing or otherwise interfering with the viewer's primary field of focus. The structure that encloses the space defines a horizontal reference. A sensor detects angular movement of the structure, such as roll and/or pitch, and a controller illuminates points on the first and second lighting columns to define an angle with respect to the horizontal reference, which varies inversely relative to the sensed angle of movement. A virtual horizon represented by the defined angle provides orientation for the viewer, to reduce the likelihood of motion sickness.
