This project aimed at designing a controller for VR that enabled spatialized vibrations through the use of the funneling effect. Several aspects of the controller were assessed.Performance-wise, users' ability to locate static vibrations, and their ability to follow dynamic patterns. In terms of user experience, the impact of vibrotactile feedback on embodiment as explored.

This project proposes a new methodologicals tools to study embodiments in virtual reality. We assess the ability of within-subjects and between-subjects design to detect effects in relationship with sample size. We explore new correlations between embodiment and other metrics in a replication of a full-body virtual embodiment protocol.

This project explore the relationship between different haptic feedbacks and virtual embodiment, especially the ecological validity of the feedback and its perception by users.
