Abstract
VR sickness with symptoms like motion sickness such as carsick may occur when using VR. The occurrence of VR sickness varies from person to person, and the intensity and symptoms of sickness vary. However, in case of the VR sickness once occurs, it interferes with VR activities. Therefore, the elimination or alleviation of VR sickness is necessary for comfortable VR activities. In this study, we propose a method of cooling the neck and temples of the skin surface to alleviate the symptoms of VR sickness when VR sickness occurs. The experimental results show that skin surface cooling is effective in suppressing the symptoms of VR sickness when it occurs.
