May Cause Dizziness: Applying the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire to Handheld Projector Interaction

Abstract

Previous user studies have suggested the occurrence of symptoms of motion or simulator sickness among active spectators of handheld projector interaction. Using the well-established Simulator Sickness Questionnaire proposed by Kennedy et al. in 1993, we asked twenty-six participants if they had any indication of such symptoms after they watched a demonstration of handheld projector interaction for about half an hour.We show that handheld projector sickness can occur in rare situations, but overall it is not a substantive problem.
