Standing is a general posture in an interactive VR experience, but is has a big burden to the user by continuously lifting the arms. In this study, we propose to take prone position (i.e. lying with one’s stomach), and rotate the visual stimuli 90 degrees around the pitch axis. By this visual rotation, we expect that we feel as if we are standing, while the support of the arm becomes unnecessary. In this paper, we developed a system and evaluated the influence of the prone position on three-dimension interaction experience, in terms of the operation accuracy and fatigue.
