Abstract

This paper presents the results of three surveys that compared the human's ability to detect and discriminate visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic information with current technical specifications of virtual environment equipment. The comparison exposes limitations of current virtual environment interfaces and thus indicates areas where improvements in equipment design are needed. Furthermore, the paper presents basic definitions and units of measurement for sensory modalities, which also can be used to describe the capabilities of virtual environment equipment. Finally, the paper concludes with remarks concerning the relationship between the data presented in the three surveys and the design of virtual interfaces.
