Abstract
A virtual reality (VR) control method is provided. In the method, a VR system detects a shaking direction of a head-mounted device of a VR user after receiving a displacement control instruction from the VR user, and then determines, according to an instruction matching rule, whether the displacement control instruction matches the shaking direction. If so, the VR system executes the displacement control instruction, and if not, the VR system does not execute the displacement control instruction. The virtual reality (VR) control method ensures that a head of the VR user has reacted in advance to stimulate a vestibular system of an inner ear before a VR scene changes, thereby avoiding motion sickness.
Claims18
A virtual reality (VR) control method, comprising:
- receiving a displacement control instruction from a VR user, wherein the displacement control instruction is selected from a group consisting of moving forward, moving backward, moving leftward, moving rightward, stopping, moving upward, moving downward, and a combination thereof;
- wherein the displacement control instruction is associated with a movement of a VR scene;
- detecting a shaking direction of a shake of a head of the VR user;
- and
- determining, according to an instruction matching rule, whether a moving direction of the movement of the VR scene associated with the displacement control instruction matches the shaking direction of the shake, wherein
- when the moving direction of movement of the VR scene associated with the displacement control instruction matches the shaking direction of the shake, the displacement control instruction is executed, and when the moving direction of movement of the VR scene associated with the displacement control instruction does not match the shaking direction of the shake, the displacement control instruction is not executed.
