This is a great proposal in relation to my current action plan - Looking at VEE (Virtual Exercise Environement).
Virtual reality (VR) can transport people to real or imagined worlds and allow them to meet or
compete with friends in distant locations. As a result it offers a unique approach to addressing
the exercise needs of people with physical and cognitive disabilities.
Virtual Exercise Environment (VEE)
Makes the user feel immersed in a recorded trail environment. The VEE consists of a
target exercise machine, audio and video displays, and a workstation to drive the displayed
percepts. In the initial phase of the project our work included the development of novel recording
techniques to capture video and physical trail properties such as tilt and distance. The VEE
display system renders immersive surround (panoramic) video in a Head Mounted Display
(HMD) while tracking head position so the user can ”look around” at all sides. The system also
modifies resistance (bikes and ergometers) or tilt (treadmills) according to recorded properties of the trail.
