Perceiving objects' and avatars' weight in Virtual Reality (VR) is important to understand
their properties and naturally interact with them. However, commercial VR controllers cannot …

Simulating accurate weight forces in Virtual Reality (VR) is an unsolved challenge.
Therefore, providing real weight sensations by transferring liquid mass has emerged as a …

Immersive virtual learning environments (iVLEs), particularly serious games and virtual
simulations, typically ignore psychomotor skills development, partly due to the difficulty and …

Introduction: Since kinesthetic cues are not present in virtual environments, users have
difficulty feeling the heaviness of virtual objects. To address this issue, pseudo-haptic …

Haptic rendering of weight plays an essential role in naturalistic object interaction in virtual
environments. While kinesthetic devices have traditionally been used for this aim by …

The realism and immersion of Virtual Reality (VR) experiences depend on the quality of
interactions between the virtual hand and virtual objects. The current drawbacks, such as …

Background In recent years, virtual reality (VR) has evolved from an alternative to a
necessity in older adults for health, medical care, and social interaction. Upper limb (UL) …

In the realm of virtual reality (VR), shape-changing controllers have emerged as a means to
enhance visuo-haptic congruence during user interactions. The major emphasis has been …

The inertia of manipulated objects contributes to natural human performance, but its effects
on virtual reality (VR) interactions have rarely been investigated. Here, we designed a virtual …

Virtual reality (VR) objects react dynamically to users' touch interactions in real-time.
However, experiencing changes in weight through the haptic sense remains challenging …
