Modulation of vection latencies in the full-body illusion

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Alessandro Nesti, Giulio Rognini

Current neuroscientific models of bodily self-consciousness (BSC) argue that inaccurate integration of sensory signals leads to altered states of BSC. Indeed, using virtual reality technology, observers viewing a fake or virtual body while being exposed to ...

Self-attribution of distorted reaching movements in immersive virtual reality

Olaf Blanke, Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Roy Salomon, Henrique Galvan Debarba

This study explores the extent to which individuals embodied in Virtual Reality tend to self-attribute the movements of their avatar. More specifically, we tested subjects performing goal-directed movements and distorted the mapping between user and avatar ...

Real-Time Generative Hand Modeling and Tracking

Anastasia Tkach

In our everyday life we interact with the surrounding environment using our hands. A main focus of recent research has been to bring such interaction to virtual objects, such as the ones projected in virtual reality devices, or super-imposed as holograms i ...

Virtual reality improves embodiment and neuropathic pain caused by spinal cord injury

Olaf Blanke, Roberta Ronchi, Marco Solcà, Estelle Palluel, Polona Pozeg

Objective: To investigate changes in body ownership and chronic neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) using multisensory own body illusions and virtual reality (VR). Methods: Twenty patients with SCI with paraplegia and 20 healthy cont ...

Virtual Zero Gravity Impact on Internal Gravity Model

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Elisa Canzoneri

This project investigates the impact of a virtual zero gravity experience on the human gravity model. In the planned experiment, subjects are immersed with HMD and full body motion capture in a virtual world exhibiting either normal gravity or the apparent ...

Characterizing first and third person viewpoints and their alternation for embodied interaction in virtual reality

Olaf Blanke, Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Roy Salomon, Henrique Galvan Debarba, Sidney Bovet

Empirical research on the bodily self has shown that the body representation is malleable, and prone to manipulation when conflicting sensory stimuli are presented. Using Virtual Reality (VR) we assessed the effects of manipulating multisensory feedback (f ...

Neural Mechanisms of Bodily Self-Consciousness and the Experience of Presence in Virtual Reality

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon

Recent neuroscience research emphasizes the embodied origins of the experience of the self. This chapter shows that further advances in the understanding of the phenomenon of VR-induced presence might be achieved in connection with advances in the understa ...

Assimilation of virtual legs and perception of floor texture by complete paraplegic patients receiving artificial tactile feedback

Hannes Bleuler, Solaiman Shokur, Simon Gallo, Miguel Nicolelis

Spinal cord injuries disrupt bidirectional communication between the patient's brain and body. Here, we demonstrate a new approach for reproducing lower limb somatosensory feedback in paraplegics by remapping missing leg/foot tactile sensations onto the sk ...

Wearable multimodal tactile interfaces for augmenting haptic perception

Simon Gallo

Haptic feedback has been used to faithfully restitute the haptic sense lacking during telemanipulation, but also for providing auxiliary information via the haptic channel to restore functional perception of missing or damaged senses, e.g. sensory substitu ...

Three-dimensional immersive virtual reality for studying cellular compartments in 3D models from EM preparations of neural tissues

Pierre Magistretti, Corrado Cali, Daniya Boges, Madhusudhanan Srinivasan

Advances in the application of electron microscopy (EM) to serial imaging are opening doors to new ways of analyzing cellular structure. New and improved algorithms and workflows for manual and semiautomated segmentation allow us to observe the spatial arr ...
