I am a human factors graduate student interested in perception of motion/motion
sickness issues (e.g. visual/vestibular mismatches).  A question I would like 
to pose to members of this group is will investigating these "basic" issues 
using more conventional means (since virtual reality systems are very 
expensive) still provide meaningful info to apply to virtual reality 
environments?  I have not given up on obtaining a low-end virtual reality 
system, but I also wish to be a "realist" about virtual reality.  Thanks in
advance for any suggestions.
