Virtual reality therapy simulation for acrophobia / Nurfiza Emilina Hamzah

Virtual reality therapy, based on this sophisticated technology, has been recently used in the treatment of subjects diagnosed with acrophobia, a disorder that is characterized by marked anxiety upon exposure to heights and avoidance of heights. Conventional VR systems for the treatment of acrophobi...
