Once you turn on these settings, you will see a few dots appear on screen. These dots will track the motion of the moving vehicle and help you eyes adjust, calming your senses and alleviating your motion sickness.

I personally was not aware of this feature before, but while I was recently perusing through the accessibility options, I came across this little nugget, and for someone who suffers from motion sickness, I definitely found this feature soothing. The dots will not come in the way of the content you are consuming, so it is not really a distraction.

Hopefully this feature helps you as much as it has helped me. Stay tuned for more tech tips, news, and reviews on TechPlugged.
