Comparison of virtual reality and real environment effects on perception of height in healthy individuals

In our study, the effect of the mechanical effect of the saccule on the height perception was investigated, and no significant difference was obtained in the height estimates made in the VR environment and in the real environment. Mechanical stimulation of the saccule is thought to have a limited role in height perception.
