Souls-VR: Dodge-Rolling in Virtual Reality

Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Figure 1: Our VR dodge roll technique is a hybrid of teleporting and Out-of-Body Locomotion.The images show both user action and the 1st person view captured from a Meta Quest headset.Left: Initial situation with a giant enemy and the yellow dodge roll target and red sword attack target used in our user study.Middle images: The player initiates the dodge roll by thrusting their arms forward.A 3rd person avatar emerges inside the 1st person view and performs the roll animation.Right: The 1st person camera transitions to the new avatar location and the player hits the target with the sword.To see the system in action, please check our supplemental video: https://youtu.be/XGfiUTbJLyY.
