Can I advise that there is a danger to come to rely on meds to address sim-sickness. This is like a sticking plaster on a broken leg - you are covering up the situation rather than addressing the symptoms. This masking can prove counter-productive if not bringing its own risks.

Is this a scientific study that's published somewhere? I too would be very keen to see hard data on this based on controlled trials rather than anecdotes.

I've also heard about other research into suppressing the senses by other means (electrical or magnetic stimulation) in order to eliminate sim-sickness, but I haven't managed to find detailed published references recording the effectiveness, side-effects, etc.

It's possible Oculus is working on that kind of research in secret, but it seems unlikely they will have a "hardware solution" for CV1. If nothing else, such a solution would need to undergo rigorous clinical trials.

I should point out that I felt fine during these demos, it was only after I quit and decided to take a break that these "symptoms" appeared.
