Kinetosis

Also known as motion sickness, it is a condition caused by motion and often accompanied by nausea. The vestibular system in the inner ear – the sensor organ that governs the sense of balance and spatial orientation - informs your brain of your movement in a fundamentally different way than your eyes. To put it simply, motion sickness happens when the brain gets confused by the received input. Nausea, paleness, sweating, and rapid heartbeat are the common symptoms that accompany this condition. For clarification - imagine that you are wearing a headset and sitting still in a chair. The events you are watching in virtual reality, however, take place in an amusement park, where you are enjoying an adrenaline-filled rollercoaster ride. The vestibular apparatus is telling your brain that you are definitely not moving, but your eyes are seeing something very different. This discrepancy can result in the temporary condition we know as motion sickness.
