Abstract

This demo presents an innovative use of embodiment in combination with 360º video to support teaching the threat-based approach to protection of civilians at a military university. To create a realistic and emotionally appealing XR experience and at the same time save on developing time and costs, scanned 3D objects and avatar were integrated in 360º videos. The app also includes interactions with a virtual perpetrator and collaborative map exercise and received positive feedback from end users.

360-degree video-based body-ownership illusion for inducing embodiment: development and feasibility results
Abstract
Illusions that create a sense of ownership over a virtual body have been widely used to investigate the characteristics of our bodily experience. Despite the great potential of 360-degree videos to implement full-body ownership illusion, research ...

This paper investigates the relationship between perceived object motion and the experience of time in virtual environments. We developed an application to measure how the motion properties of virtual objects and the degree of immersion and embodiment ...
Military education in extended reality (XR): learning troublesome knowledge through immersive experiential application
Abstract
Extended reality (XR) applications for education are usually associated with motivation, engagement, knowledge and experiences that are difficult to achieve in the real world. One example of such knowledge in military education is the threat-based ...
