1st International Workshop on Standardization in Cybersickness Research: “Establishing Standards for Cybersickness Measurement and Mitigation: A Community-Driven Approach”

The pervasive challenge of cybersickness significantly hinders the widespread adoption and seamless user experience of virtual reality (VR) technology. The absence of standardized methodologies for assessing and mitigating cybersickness further complicates research efforts and the development of effective countermeasures. The 1st International Workshop on Standardization in Cybersickness Research aims to address this critical need by fostering a community-driven approach to establish benchmarks and best practices. The workshop will facilitate knowledge exchange and collaboration among researchers, developers, and stakeholders to collectively address the multifaceted challenges of cybersickness. Through interactive breakout sessions and discussions, the workshop seeks to achieve consensus on standardized metrics and methodologies for measuring cybersickness, evaluate and refine mitigation techniques, and explore the impact of individual differences and emerging technologies. The anticipated outcomes include the development of a standardized assessment framework, identification of best practices for mitigation, and a roadmap for future research, ultimately contributing to the advancement of VR well-being and user experience.
