Abstract

One key factor in stopping the spread of COVID-19 is practicing social distancing. Visualizing possible sneeze droplets' transmission routes in front of an infected person might be an effective way to help people understand the importance of social distancing. This paper presents a mobile virtual reality (VR) interface that helps people visualize droplet dispersion from the target person's view. We implemented a VR application to visualize and interact with the sneeze simulation data immersively. Our application provides an easy way to communicate the correlation between social distance and infected droplets exposure, which is difficult to achieve in the real world.
