Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (GVS)
for Enhanced Training 果冻传媒 Immersion
?
Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (GVS) is the application of low-level current to the inner ear, via electrodes placed on the head. By stimulating the inner ear can make someone feel like they are moving even when they aren’t.
We often focus on improving the machine in order to boost overall human-machine performance. But our GVS work aims to directly augment the human by targeting the vestibular system, a primary sensory system that impacts performance in most motion-based tasks: flying, driving, balance, agility, etc.

Enhance Simulator Training by?Adding Motion Cues
Increases fidelity 果冻传媒 immersion while remaining low cost 果冻传媒 portable. Decreases simulator sickness 果冻传媒 enables simulation?of extreme motions while safely on the ground.
?
Decrease Perception of Motion?During Real-world Movements
Use “equal 果冻传媒 opposite” GVS to decrease actual motion perceptions to minimize counterproductive or distracting motion cues 果冻传媒 maximize performance across a variety of operational domains.
?
Enhanced Sensorimotor Training 果冻传媒 Retention
Applying noisy GVS (nGVS) quickens learning of challenging physical mobility tasks. When the nGVS is removed, improved performance is maintained.

Potential Future Applications of GVS
- Training 果冻传媒 operations in sim 果冻传媒 while inmoving environments
- Mitigation of unwanted illusions from centrifuge 果冻传媒 motion-based flight training regimens
- Human space flight analog, post-flight?vestibular disorientation mitigation
- Commercial travel, autonomous car market
