Hey Gang- I am leaving my current faculty job to form a company developing mental health VR applications. The name of my company will be VRSciences.
One of the research areas will be cue-induced cravings in different psychopathologies like drug addiction and food binging. I am trying to propose some grants and wanted a little background on how people would approach the problem of making an individually specific rooms (e.g. favorite bar or close promitity thereof) or outside environment (e.g. alley). A problem is that in California the cues might be different from say Phildelphia, etc. So, I will need to propose some sort of customization facility that the therapist could use to build an individiually specific environment after interviewing her client. A library would be nice. I could see the imposter tricks coming into play and using video texturing to represent people in the distance. Avatars? The optimiation problem: Realism,Time to build,Time to run I would appreciate it if people would throw some ideas out. Thanks!
