Retargeted Self-Haptics for Increased Immersion in VR without Hand Instrumentation
summary
Introduces a method that warps tracked hand positions so one real hand acts as a physical prop for the other, implemented as retargeted self-haptics across 12 interactive demos spanning three categories (one-handed, one-sided two-handed, bimanual) and evaluated with 11 participants. Builds VR prototypes that halt or redirect motion (hammer, keypad, bow) using body-warping and vision-based tracking, reports higher tactility, immersion and fun with no change to ownership or agency, and documents parameter tables, limitations (tracking, occlusion, precision) and design guidelines.
