Virtual reality exposure and neuro-bio feedback to help coping with traumatic events
conference paper
Recent research shows that Virtual Reality (VR) exposure or bio-neuro feedback can help professionals to cope with possibly traumatic events. This paper presents a neuro-bio VR system that combines both methods in order to further improve the prevention and therapy of trauma-related disorders. This system can harmonize the VR exposure to user's personal experiences by systematically showing scenes and stressors, and monitoring the corresponding EEG, heart rate and skin conductance responses. The paper describes the set-up of a first experiment that is being conducted to test the effects of the VR stressors on bio-neuro markers and their dependency on the specific scene (do scene-specific effects appear?). The results of this experiment will be included in the poster.
