ثبات پستورال و بیماری شبیه ساز پس از پیاده روی یک تردمیل در یک محیط مجازی با یک صفحه نمایش منحنی

Thirty able-bodied Canadian Armed Forces members participated in this study. Symptoms of SIS were evaluated using the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire and postural stability was quantified using centre of pressure data during quiet stance. SIS symptoms and postural stability were evaluated three times throughout the session – at the start of the session, after 15 min, and after 45 min. Participants reported mild simulator sickness symptoms, including eyestrain, headache, difficulty focusing, and dizziness after immersion in the virtual environment, which was below the acceptable level. Postural instability was greater after 45 min in the virtual environment, but did not affect participant’s ability to successfully complete the session. The data reported in this paper provide useful baseline information of a healthy military population for clinical assessments and future studies using a virtual environment with a treadmill-motion base and large curved display.
