Enhancing virtual realities (VR) immersion involves incorporating non-audio-visual sensations. This study introduces a non-contact thermal display attached to a head-mounted display, utilizing visible light heating through optical fibers. Users can experience spatial thermal sensations in VR, accurately perceiving the virtual heat source locations, which was assessed through a psychological experiment.
