Motigravity: A new VR system to increase performance and safety in space operations simulation and rehabilitation medicine

Abstract

Motigravity is a new immersive instrument developed by Mars Planet where one or more persons interact with a virtual environment using a visual and biomechanical system. The applications of this system are various; here, applications in space operations simulation and rehabilitation medicine, in particular, are presented. This paper aims to bring to the scientific community knowledge about this recently developed virtual reality technology in order to motivate cooperation, development, and application of this facility.
