Abstract
Head-mounted displays (HMDs) are advertised as a solution to increase the sensation of immersion of users in virtual environments. Historically, however, research has found that technological limitations of those devices caused poor experiences and discomfort on users, limiting their applicability. We evaluated a device of the current generation of low-cost, high-performance HMDs in the context of a ball sports training application to find out if those problems remain. The results indicate that, while users reported increased immersion with the HMD, their performance in the test varied only slightly.
