We present PerspectAR, a novel system addressing perspective distortion on displays caused by large size and wide viewing angles. PerspectAR has three components: a virtual AR screen that curves dynamically according to a user’s position relative to the display, a
Most virtual reality systems and experiences focus on the visual channel, with audio—and more rarely haptics—in a supporting role. We designed and evaluated a VR system that omits the visual channel entirely, enabling non-visual exploration of large virtual environments using
