To create successful health care applications with today's virtual
environments, we must begin by asking: what are they good at? This
book offers an answer to its potential readers - physicians,
psychologists and health care provider - by presenting an overview
of the current research in this field. In fact, the book, whose
idea comes from the work made within the EC funded Virtual Reality
Environments for Psycho-neuro-physiological assessment and
Rehabilitation VREPAR - project, (HC 1053 -
www.etho.be/ht_projects/vrepar), is a collection of chapters from
researchers who have pioneered the ideas and the technology
associated with virtual reality. More in particular, the book
discusses the clinical principles, human factors, and technology
issues associated with the use of virtual reality for assessment
and treatment. It should be noted that technical characteristics of
virtual worlds change very rapidly, but what will not change is the
user of the virtual environment. Thus, to ensure that the contents
of this book are not quickly updated, all the contributors have
made a great effort to identify possible constraints in the use of
this technology and to indicate how they can be faced and solved.
The key issue was to integrate knowledge of clinical therapy and
psychological principles related to human factors into the design
of virtual environments. The book is divided in three main sections
comprising 13 chapters overall: virtual reality for health care,
virtual reality for psychological assessment and rehabilitation and
virtual reality for neuro-physiological assessment and
rehabilitation.
