From Gaming Prescriptions to Virtual Reality Drugs
Andrew Robertson — May 13, 2012 — Unique
For those who think that the technology from science fiction films is still light years away, take a look at these augmented reality medical modifications.
It seems that interviews aren't the only things that are being done through the internet these days. While interactions and meetings are increasingly relayed through digital mediums such as Skype, it appears that medical training is also adopting digital technology in regards to training future doctors.
Prescriptions are now including virtual reality gaming to treat things like phobias and geriatric-related issues. If you thought that digital addictions like "jacking-in" existed solely within cyber-punk fiction, think again. Virtual Reality Drugs offer users the ability to relay the world around them in a more visually pleasing way. It appears that the future is set on the partnership between virtual reality and medicine.
