A Search for Possible neural pathways Leading to Visually Induced Motion Sickness.

Numerous studies have proved that, either when seated or standing, and watching continuously rotating, oscillating, or translating scene movements, about 30% of humans will suffer from mild to moderate sickness symptoms ranging from headache to nausea and about 10% will prefer to stop watching the visual stimulation. There is also evidence to link this type of visually-induced motion sickness to postural instability. Recently, the ISO Technical Management Board approved a call for an ISO International Workshop Agreement (IWA3) on image safety that addresses this issue of visually induced motion sickness (VIMS).
