  • Publication number: 20220075457
    Abstract: Apparatus for detecting movements of a person using the apparatus for the purpose of transforming the movements into a virtual space, comprising a seat (110; 210; 410), sensors which detect the movements of the feet of the person using the apparatus, and cyber foot covers (50a; 50b; 50c; 50d) for receiving at least one of the sensors. The seat (110; 210; 410) comprises a support member (103; 203) adapted in that a seat element (105; 205), on which the person using the apparatus can sit, is attachable to an upper portion of the support member (103; 203) and in that the load of the seat element (105; 205) is received substantially along a vertically arranged longitudinal axis of the support member (103; 203) and transferred downwards to a ground. The seat (110; 210; 410) is rotatably arranged relative to the ground and is shaped such that at least a movement of the legs from the knee to the distal end of the legs of the person using the apparatus is allowed.

  • Publication number: 20220057424
    Abstract: A method for compensating drift of a motion direction sensor system for measuring a motion direction of a user in a VR system includes receiving a measured viewing direction of the user from a viewing direction sensor system for measuring a viewing direction at a measurement time, receiving a measured motion direction of the user from the motion direction sensor system for measuring a motion direction at the same measurement time, and calculating a drift compensation from the difference between the measured viewing direction of the user and the measured motion direction of the user so that a drift compensated motion direction of the user can be determined by adding the calculated drift compensation to a subsequently measured motion direction of the user. One embodiment includes a computer program product and a device configured to perform the method.
