An innovative scenario for the treatment of social anxiety and panic disorders is the virtual subway ride. Patients are on a platform in a subway station, where therapists can control the number of passengers (avatars) and their interactions. These avatars can address patients as required to intensify the confrontation.
With one click, a subway arrives, and patients can independently board. Full freedom of movement during the ride ensures a high level of realism and allows for a deeper emotional response. The number of passengers can also be adjusted during the ride.
Additionally, therapists can control when the subway arrives at the next station or stops in the tunnel, and stress-inducing announcements can be played. This scenario is ideal for VR therapy for panic disorders and as a tool for treating social anxiety.
There is now a new petrol station scenario for VR therapy for addictive behavior that has been specially developed for the treatment of alcohol addiction. This relapse location is frequently mentioned in acute psychiatric and rehabilitation clinics in particular, which is why this scenario was requested by many customers.
In this scenario, patients are placed in a photorealistic gas station shop at night. They can interact with various alcoholic beverages, including beer cans, wine bottles, and spirits, and also select non-alcoholic options. Everything can be picked up, put down, or placed in a shopping cart – an ideal opportunity for a realistic confrontation as part of behavioral therapy.
Another scenario for treating addictive behaviors is an abandoned train station, equipped with illegal substances such as pills, crack pipes, whiskey bottles, and joints. These substances are placed in various locations such as phone booths, benches, or old cars.
Therapists can guide patients to either consume these substances or consciously reject and dispose of them. This realistic relapse situation allows patients to deal with their temptations in a safe virtual space and develop new coping strategies.
Another highlight of the update is the introduction of a new generation of avatars in the VR therapy software. All scenarios benefit from more realistic avatars with improved facial expressions, movements, and representations. These new avatars enhance the realism of the therapy experience and improve emotional immersion.
A special innovation is the AI-controlled speech function: no manual voice selection is required anymore, as the AI automatically adjusts the tone and intonation to the entered text. This reduces preparation time and significantly increases the immersion of VR psychotherapy.
