Abstract

We created a new vection stimulus, which we presented to participants with Google Cardboard and via a portable terminal based on the Android operating system. This method is quite new, very affordable, and highly portable. It thus has high potential for bringing in a new age of vection research. The new stimulus can be modified as observers move their heads and bodies; we conducted an experiment comparing it to the standard stimulus that cannot be changed in this manner. Results showed that vection can be stronger with the new stimulus, but facilitation effects were obtained both in our new stimulus and the old stimulus when there were their head and body movements. We discuss the possible reasons for this result.
