This program is a half day seminar on impact VR has on psychological therapy and medical rehabilitation. Before the break we will start with a session called Advanced Medical Rehabilitation, after the break we continue with The Transformation of Psychological Therapy. Each session will consist of three 20 minute presentations by an academic researcher, a company that works in the field and a recent project. After the three presentations a panel with the three presenters, an industry expert and an academic researcher will follow.

In the panel the following questions will be central:

1. Where do we see the applications of VR going?

2. Do we need more trials and if so, how do we conduct trials on a larger scale?

3. How do we roll this out on a large scale and what are the cost and benefits if we do so?

UITSPRAAK OVER VR

"To begin with, Virtual Reality is a part of computer science and it represents a new approach to computer science. Instead of treating the computer as a box that's out there that is supposed to accomplish something, you put a human being in the center and say, "Let's look at the human being closely. Let's see how people perceive the world or how they act. Let's design a computer to fit very closely around them, like a glove, you might say. Let's match up the technology to exactly what people are good at.""
Jaron Lanier, 1992
