Participants' selfies are captured and transformed into digital avatars using 3D reconstruction techniques. Different levels of similarity can be created by varying the fidelity of the reconstruction.

Participants enter a VR environment where they are embodied in their avatar. Their movements are synchronized with the avatar to create a sense of embodiment and control over the virtual body.

Participants engage in a coin entrustment exercise designed to evaluate trust and collaboration. Each participant receives coins and has the opportunity to entrust them to a robot, measuring how different levels of avatar similarity affect willingness to trust.
