Human responses to augmented virtual scaffolding models / Hongwei Hsiao... [et al.]
This study investigated the effect of adding real planks, in virtual scaffolding models of elevation, on human performance in a surround-screen virtual reality system. The results showed differences in human responses to real vs. virtual planks in walking pattern, instability score and heart-rate inter-beat intervals. The response of the constructors and the unexperienced participants would be employed to take practical implications from a virtual environment, and to develop the programme for balance-control training to reduce the risk of falls at elevated constructions
