Viscereality: Bioresponsive Virtual Reality for Box Breathing and Altered-State Experience
George Fejer, Till Holzapfel, Taru Hirvonen et al. preprint
Abstract Breath-based interactions in virtual reality typically map breathing onto discrete visual objects or physiological proxies. Viscereality instead translates respiratory state into a surrounding particle field, mapping lung volume onto external space so that inhalation expands the environment and exhalation contracts it. Because particle fields have no fixed boundary, they can convey...
