Going, going, gone: Exploring intention communication for multi-user locomotion in virtual reality
Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2023•dl.acm.org
Exploring virtual worlds together with others adds a social component to the Virtual Reality
(VR) experience that increases connectedness. In the physical world, joint locomotion
comes naturally through implicit intention communication and subsequent adjustments of
the movement patterns. In VR, however, discrete locomotion techniques such as
point&teleport come without prior intention communication, hampering the collective
experience. Related work proposes fixed groups, with a single person controlling the group …

Exploring virtual worlds together with others adds a social component to the Virtual Reality (VR) experience that increases connectedness. In the physical world, joint locomotion comes naturally through implicit intention communication and subsequent adjustments of the movement patterns. In VR, however, discrete locomotion techniques such as point&teleport come without prior intention communication, hampering the collective experience. Related work proposes fixed groups, with a single person controlling the group movement, resulting in the loss of individual movement capabilities. To close the gap and mediate between these two extremes, we introduce three intention communication methods and explore them with two baseline methods. We contribute the results of a controlled experiment (n=20) investigating these methods from the perspective of a leader and a follower in a dyadic locomotion task. Our results suggest shared visualizations support the understanding of movement intentions, increasing the group feeling while maintaining individual freedom of movement.
