The objective of this study is to examine the effects of active control verses passive watching on visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) during game playing, as well as the types of eye motions. Two experiments are reported: Experiment one compared sickness levels in active and passive conditions and Experiment two studied the effects of eye fixation during passive watching. Preliminary results show that: (i) rated nausea levels during passive watching were significantly higher than active playing (p < 0.05) and (ii) nausea level during passive watching was significantly suppressed by eye fixation (p < 0.05).
