THE SCIENCE
How GVS Works

Understanding the science behind cybersickness and how vestibular stimulation resolves it.

Vestibular stimulation diagram

What is Cybersickness?

Cybersickness is the discomfort -- nausea, dizziness, eye strain, disorientation -- experienced when using VR headsets or simulators. It results from a sensory conflict: your eyes perceive motion, but your inner ear senses that you're stationary. This mismatch confuses the brain and triggers symptoms similar to motion sickness.

Between 25% and 60% of VR users are affected.

The Vestibular System

The vestibular organ is located in the inner ear. It consists of the semicircular canals (detecting rotational movement) and the utricle and saccule (detecting linear acceleration and gravity). Together, these structures are essential for maintaining balance, posture, and spatial orientation.

Your inner ear is the body's motion sensor.

How GVS Bridges the Gap

Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation applies a gentle, calibrated electrical current to the vestibular nerve via electrodes behind the ears. This modulates the balance signals sent to the brain, reducing the conflict between visual and vestibular inputs. The result: a more comfortable, immersive VR experience without nausea or disorientation.

GVS aligns what you see with what you feel.
