Pseudo-walking Sensation by Anteroposterior or Lateral Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation and Synchronous Foot-sole Vibrations.

The walking sensation is a result of the synthesis of multisensory inputs from various systems. The vestibular system, typically used for detecting acceleration, is a crucial component of the walking sensation. This study investigated the use of galvanic vestibular stimulation(GVS) to enhance the sensation of walking in virtual reality (VR) environments, particularly when users are seated and not engaged in active movements.
