Abstract
Virtual Reality (VR) is widely applied in various domains such as medical, training, education, entertainment, and etc. In relation to sport training, VR-based system is used by many athletes for various exercise such as cycling and rowing. The objective of sport training can be divided into two: improving athletes' performance or their fitness. In sport training, performance is measured by using a timer, heart rate device, breathing mask and many more, whereby athlete's fitness is measured by their stamina, strength and endurance. In the previous researchers' assessment, questionnaire is commonly used for analyzing purposes. From those researches, it was suggested that presence plays a significant role towards enhancing athletes' performance and fitness while undergoing the sport training. This paper covers issues that are related to presence, 6D, its effects to VR applications, and the methods of assessment in detail. From the findings, it is anticipated that when higher dimensional VR system and human sense are used, a realistic sense of presence will be felt which creates a more realistic experience. In addition, this paper also discusses how extra elements such as altitude, temperature, wind-effect and many more can affect the feeling of presence while using VR application. These extra elements would create a higher dimensional VR application. The aim of this study is to identify an effective combination elements or dimensions that maximizes a high-fidelity presence in VR-based sport training. � 2020 IEEE.
