Abstract
Every human with a functioning vestibular system is capable of feeling motion sickness, but some are more vulnerable than others. Based on the leading theories explaining this condition, vulnerability should be predicted by a person's years of real-life experience before using a VR device and years of VR experience after. A questionnaire was filled out on susceptibility to motion sickness in VR by people on VR-related forums. Results from the survey show that the condition has a significant relationship with age or experience outside the environment.
