Dynamic narrative in virtual reality driven by biofeedback
summary
Using heart rate, galvanic skin response and temperature biofeedback, the talk presents adapting a VR environment and virtual avatars in real time to match the user’s emotional state. The approach aims to preserve presence by letting the virtual world respond to the user’s sensations; it was tested in an R&D project that adapts a virtual dog’s behavior to help children with autism overcome fear of dogs.
