Abstract

Pre-computed ship-motion history has been used in the multi-user Virtual Reality (VR) system VELOS in conjunction with a kinematically-oriented inclination steering behavior as simple means for considering the effects of ship motion on simulated passengers’ movement. This first approach does not account for the dynamic nature of the phenomenon, thus ignoring motion accelerations. Ship-motion accelerations, however, are critical to the assessment of a person’s balancing and/or sliding aboard ships and consequently to its capability of performing an assigned task. In this work, we are focusing on the exploitation of pre-computed ship motions and accelerations and we investigate the usage of the concepts of Motion-Induced Interruptions (MIIs) and tipping coefficients in modeling the effects of ship-motion accelerations on passengers.
