[POSTER] Maintaining Appropriate Interpersonal Distance Using Virtual Body Size

Abstract

Securing one's personal space is quite important in leading a comfortable social life. However, it is difficult to maintain an appropriate interpersonal distance all the time. Therefore, we propose an interpersonal distance control system with a video see-through system, consisting of a head-mounted display (HMD), depth sensor, and RGB camera. The proposed system controls the interpersonal distance by changing the size of the person in the HMD view. In this paper, we describe the proposed system and conduct an experiment to confirm the capability of the proposed system. Finally, we show and discuss the results of the experiment.
