Research on Quantification of VR(Virtual Reality) Related Stress and Relaxation

December 6, 2016 updated by: Samsung Medical Center

Virtual Reality Stress and Relief Project, Research on Quantification of VR Related Stress, Motion Sickness and Visual Fatigue

Current virtual reality device makes motion sickness and visual fatigue having limitation for recreation and other clinical approaches. Still there is no standardized quantification of motion sickness and visual fatigue measurement with objective approach. Current biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality would be promising tool for stress relief.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Current virtual reality device makes motion sickness and visual fatigue having limitation for recreation and other clinical approaches. Still there is no standardized quantification of motion sickness and visual fatigue measurement with objective approach. After quantification and improvement with these shortcomings, current biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality would be promising tool for stress relief. This research aims to measure objective motion sickness and visual fatigue with psychological stress in highly stressed group, and to compare between stress relief with existing biofeedback only approach and relief with mixed biofeedback and virtual reality relaxation.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
PLACEBO_COMPARATOR: Stress relief with existing biofeedback
After distressing virtual reality video and full resting time to relieve this stress, the investigators are going to give cognitive distress with serial seven, accompanied with existing biofeedback approach to relieve stress.
Using relaxing assisted biofeedback approach
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Stress relief with biofeedback and VR
After distressing virtual reality video and full resting time to relieve this stress, the investigators are going to give cognitive distress with serial seven, accompanied with biofeedback combined to virtual reality relaxation.
Using relaxation approach with existing biofeedback accompanied by virtual reality relaxation
