SwiVRChair: A Motorized Swivel Chair to Nudge Users' Orientation for 360 Degree Storytelling in ...
summary
A swivel chair is modified with a 24V DC motor, gearbox, toothed belt, hall sensor and an electromagnetic clutch controlled by an Arduino to motorize rotation for Samsung GearVR 360 videos. Two modes—rotate and block—nudge attention or temporarily prevent turning while users can always resist the clutch. A user study (n=16) compares this to self-control and reports higher presence and enjoyment and reduced simulator sickness.
