VR TESTBED CONFIGURATION FOR PHOBIA TREATMENT RESEARCH

Previous research has shown that Virtual Reality can be used for treatment of phobias. To further investigate these and other types of VR applications a testbed is needed that is both effective in phobia treatment and easy to adapt. This effectiveness is in general associated with the sense of presence experienced in a VR. Presence depends in part on characteristics of the VE, such as interactivity and vividness. This paper describes the requirements for such a testbed and a possible hardware and software configuration that meets those requirements.
