Abstract

In augmented reality, we have a virtual layer superimposed on reality. This virtual layer can contain multisensory content, that is, content that stimulates each of our senses: sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell, and many interoceptive senses such as pain, heat, time, and balance. The virtual layer can contain virtual humans that have virtual senses to explore the augmented reality environment and to interact with real humans. These virtual humans can take on a role in social, marketing, retail, training, education, and entertainment augmented reality applications. In the human-like behavior of virtual humans, we expect awareness, use, and display of awareness of these senses. We present a view on the existing literature on virtual humans in augmented reality with a focus on sense-related presence issues.
