Abstract: Cyber sickness (CS), a symptom that occurs in 30-80% of users when using virtual environments, is still considered an obstacle to the spread of virtual reality (VR). The aim of this study is to investigate whether symptoms of CS can be minimised by software adaptation. A prototype of a layer based on the "Seetroën Glasses" was used for this purpose. 80 students participated in the study with virtual roller coaster rides. The results show that the group with the layer was able to increase its performance and that the layer was able to delay the exit of the participants for about 2 laps. The layer does not provide immunity to CS, but it does delay the onset of symptoms. The study shows that the virtual test environment is suitable for investigating CS and that the prototype of the layer may be promising for reducing symptoms of CS.
