Analysis and Evaluation of Behavior of R-V Dynamics Illusion in Various Conditions

Abstract

This study examines the R-V Dynamics Illusion caused by different motion states of real and virtual objects. We discovered that various perceptual changes occur when a CG image imitating a liquid is superimposed onto a real object. The real object was perceived to be lighter when the real object was swung and the CG liquid moved, compared to when the liquid did not move, and the amount of muscle activity was found to decrease. In this research, the influence of the R-V Dynamics Illusion was analyzed by measuring the acceleration of the real object and the muscle fatigue of the subject. The experimental results showed that, when the real object was swung and the liquid moved, the object was swung at a low acceleration and the subjects’ muscles tended to be fatigued.
