“…They also investigated components of presence, the sense of ownership, and self‐location and found that 1PP was preferred over 3PP. These results contrast with those in the work of Debarba et al but match those presented in the work of Kokkinara et al However, in both papers, it was hypothesized that the measurements in the work of Debarba et al might lack sensitivity. What they mean by sensitivity is that whereas Gorisse et al uses a questionnaire with multiple questions to assess the levels of both self‐location and ownership, Debarba et al uses only one question for self‐location and one for ownership.…”

Evaluating enjoyment, presence, and emulator sickness in VR games based on first‐ and third‐ person viewing perspectives

Many virtual reality (VR) games are based on a first-person perspective (1PP). There are, however, advantages in using another perspective, such as the third-person perspective (3PP). Although there has been some research evaluating the effect of 1PP and 3PP in gameplay experiences, it is largely unexplored for VR games played via the new generation of commercial head-mounted display systems, such as the Oculus Rift. In this research we want to shed some light on the relationship between the different perspectives, when games are played using head-mounted display VR, and simulator sickness, enjoyment, and presence. To do so, we perform an experiment using two different perspectives (1PP and 3PP) and displays (VR and a conventional display) with a popular game. Our findings indicate that 3PP-VR is less likely to make people have simulator sickness when compared with 1PP-VR. However, the former is not perceived as immersive, but this might not be a problem because our data also show that presence is not mandatory for enjoyment. Also, the data suggest that there is no clear preference between 1PP-VR and 3PP-VR for gameplay.

“…While many studies on embodiment in virtual environments are based on first-person perspective ( Figure 3A) and real-time mirrors, the third-person perspective (Figure 3B) used in this experiment allows to perceive the whole embodied avatar while opening new use cases for virtual reality. Furthermore, previous work demonstrated that the sense of embodiment could be induced in third person perspective under synchronous visuomotor conditions (Debarba et al, 2015(Debarba et al, , 2017Gorisse et al, 2017).…”

From Robot to Virtual Doppelganger: Impact of Visual Fidelity of Avatars Controlled in Third-Person Perspective on Embodiment and Behavior in Immersive Virtual Environments

et al. 2019

This study presents the second phase of a series of experiments investigating the impact of avatar visual fidelity on the sense of embodiment and users' behavior in immersive virtual environments. Our main focus concerns the similarity between users and avatars, a factor known as truthfulness. Our experiment requires the participants to control three avatars using a third-person perspective: a robot, a suit and their virtual doppelganger (virtual representation of the self). In order to analyze users' reactions and strategies, each task of the scenario of the virtual reality application can potentially affect the integrity of their characters. Our results revealed that ownership, one of the three factors of the sense of embodiment, is higher for the participants controlling their self-representation than with abstract representations. Furthermore, avatar visual fidelity seems to affect users' subjective experience, half of the panel reported having different behavior depending on the controlled character. Abstract representations allow the users to adopt more risky behaviors, while self-representations maintain a connection with the real world and encourage users to preserve the integrity of their avatar.

“…Current research allows to identify many factors affecting the level of technological immersion (Slater and Wilbur, 1997;Slater, 1999;Cummings and Bailenson, 2016) of VR setup, such as field of view, tracking level, or stereoscopy. However, the studies concerning the viewpoint notion and its consequences in terms of embodiment reached different conclusions (Slater et al, 2010;Petkova et al, 2011;Maselli and Slater, 2013;Debarba et al, 2015). Some argue that the first-person perspective is the most suitable condition to induce a high sense of embodiment (Slater et al, 2010;Petkova et al, 2011;Maselli and Slater, 2013), while others do not observe significant differences between the two viewpoint modes (Debarba et al, 2015).…”

First- and Third-Person Perspectives in Immersive Virtual Environments: Presence and Performance Analysis of Embodied Users

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Current design of virtual reality (VR) applications relies essentially on the transposition of users' viewpoint in first-person perspective (1PP). Within this context, our research aims to compare the impact and the potentialities enabled via the integration of the third-person perspective (3PP) in immersive virtual environments (IVE). Our empirical study is conducted in order to assess the sense of presence, the sense of embodiment, and performance of users confronted with a series of tasks presenting a case of potential use for the video game industry. Our results do not reveal significant differences concerning the sense of spatial presence with either point of view. Nonetheless, they provide evidence confirming the relevance of using the first-person perspective to induce a sense of embodiment toward a virtual body, especially in terms of self-location and ownership. However, no significant differences were observed concerning the sense of agency. Concerning users' performance, our results demonstrate that the first-person perspective enables more accurate interactions, while the third-person perspective provides better space awareness.
