This paper describes a passive stimulation of a body to evoke a walking sensation using a vestibular and haptic device while the real body of the user is sitting. It imparts a pseudo body image to the user through the real (physical) body of the user as a part of the virtual reality (VR) display system. The created walking sensation was evaluated by nine factors to analyze the complex nature of the walking sensation.
