While virtual reality has been around for several decades, both as a concept and a technology, it is only in the past few years that inexpensive, mass-produced, higher-quality VR systems have become broadly available. This has enabled more people to experiment and conduct research with VR software, and better determine its potential and use.
The field of medicine has exemplified this approach. Medical Extended Reality, or MXR, is an emerging area of research surrounding the psychology, physiology, and ethics of virtual reality and augmented reality. By applying it to the treatment of mental and physical illnesses, MXR sheds light on some of the most mysterious, even philosophical aspects of human existence - perception and the mind.
Dr. Brennen Spiegel is the Director Health Services Research for Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he and his colleagues are exploring the cutting edge of MXR. He is also the author of VRx: How Virtual Therapeutics Will Revolutionize Medicine.
