Impact of Immersive Technology on Physiological Parameters in Psychiatric Disorders

The brain is an essential component that regulates the general functioning of the body. The brain consists of millions of neurons that govern human behavior in response to sensory stimuli. To understand the mental functioning of the brain, it is important to assess its neural signals. Presently, the exponential expansion of prescription medications and substances, including alcohol and drugs, is exerting a significant influence on human psychology. The rising prevalence of different health disorders can be attributed to the increasing number of cases. The sensorimotor cortex, which in humans is in charge of coordinating both physical and cognitive activities, can be used to visualize brain signals. The present research describes an empirical investigation that employs Virtual Reality therapy to examine the affective condition of individuals suffering from drug addiction. The study utilized the Emotiv Insight 5-channel EEG headset to collect EEG data from 50 participants, and the Emotiv Pro software was employed for data analysis. The study findings indicate that Virtual Reality treatment has a substantial positive impact on the stress levels and concentration of persons suffering from drug addiction.

Abstract

The brain is an essential component that regulates the general functioning of the body. The brain consists of millions of neurons that govern human behavior in response to sensory stimuli. To understand the mental functioning of the brain, it is important to assess its neural signals. Presently, the exponential expansion of prescription medications and substances, including alcohol and drugs, is exerting a significant influence on human psychology. The rising prevalence of different health disorders can be attributed to the increasing number of cases. The sensorimotor cortex, which in humans is in charge of coordinating both physical and cognitive activities, can be used to visualize brain signals. The present research describes an empirical investigation that employs Virtual Reality therapy to examine the affective condition of individuals suffering from drug addiction. The study utilized the Emotiv Insight 5-channel EEG headset to collect EEG data from 50 participants, and the Emotiv Pro software was employed for data analysis. The study findings indicate that Virtual Reality treatment has a substantial positive impact on the stress levels and concentration of persons suffering from drug addiction.
