Dynamic Self-Avatar Motion Retargeting in Virtual Reality

In Virtual Reality (VR), users can feel embodied through a virtual body that mimics their physical one in terms of location, behavior, and movement. Several studies have explored users’ perception of self-avatar movement retargeting. However, the boundaries of dynamic changes of user movements and the process of adaption to new self-avatar behaviors remain unclear and require additional investigations. Exploring this motion retargeting techniques is crucial to both enhance the availability of this technology and improve its applications in rehabilitation therapies.
