Abstract:
A biofeedback virtual reality (VR) system and methods are provided for improving, optimizing, or minimizing the physiological or psychological effects of a medical condition, such as a physiological or psychological condition of a patient. The biofeedback VR System monitors one or more physiological parameters while presenting an immersive VR environment. The system and method comprise a closed-loop biofeedback system where a user (i.e., patient) observes a VR Experience provided by the VR System. The VR System monitors one or more physiological parameters while guiding the user to an improved (or optimized) physiological state through improvement of one or more of the physiological parameters. In some embodiments, a social experience is included in the VR, where the user engages with one or more other users in the VR Experience.

Claim (Index 1):
A virtual reality biofeedback system for treatment of a patient in need thereof, the system comprising:\n a virtual reality computing and display system comprising:\n a virtual reality software system, which provides a virtual reality experience to the patient, \n a computing system having components for implementing and processing the virtual reality software system, \n a display system in communication with the computing system, for displaying the virtual reality experience, which is transmitted to the patient via the display system, and \n a controller in communication with the computer system; and \n one or more physiological sensors for positioning on a patient body, each sensor, individually monitoring at least one physiological signal from the patient body to produce physiological data, the physiological signal being transmitted to the computing and display system, wherein the virtual reality system varies the virtual reality experience of the patient in response to the received physiological signal of the patient in a biofeedback loop.
