Galvanic vestibular stimulation is combined with visual stimulation to extend movement and directional cues within a virtual reality scene. A head mounted display unit (15) is connected to the video port of the computer (1). The computer's stimulation software transmits to the head mounted display unit (15) the video that provides the visual stimulation (2) to the user (4). The user (4) has galvanic electrodes (14) attached to the user's head. These galvanic electrodes (14) are connected to an isolated current generator (6). Corresponding to the visual stimulation (2) being received by the user (4), the stimulation software program running on the computer (1) sends the isolated current generator (6) a signal to trigger the galvanic electrodes (14) on the user (4) thereby providing the user (4) simultaneous and corresponding visual (2) and vestibular (3) stimuli.
