ΑΓΩ Simulations has developed a mixed reality system that aims to provide better treatments for phobias. It allows the patient to move with their whole body inside a virtual world, and have an immersive experience that arms them with the skills to face the stimuli that trigger their phobia. By tracking the patient's reactions with a motion-tracking camera to each exercise, the system can dynamically adapt to an appropriate level of difficulty, providing the clinician with concrete data about their patients' improvement and overall progress, as well as a more personalized treatment for the patients. ΑΓΩ has been proven to improve current treatments by up to 35%.

Highlights ⭐

  • The need is there: Only 20% of patients seek and follow treatment for anxiety disorders, and of that number - half actually get treated. 🔗
