Medical use of virtual reality | Virtual reality application treating fear of heights






.................................................................................................................


Summary
This project explores the medical potential of virtual reality in treating the fear of heights.
In this VR application, the patient enters an immersive computer generated space and is taken to various floors on a high-rise building. The simulation feels very real, but the patient is able to acclimate in a safe environment where the actual danger is removed.
