Virtual Reality Rehabilitation and Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare Technology

Abstract

The benefit of virtual rehabilitation is that it helps the patient increase their engagement and motivation. Another advantage is that it allows patient specific. A third utility is that the therapist can make the sessions more efficient and productive. A feature of virtual reality (VR) rehabilitation is that it is possible to create virtual environments which are more realistic than those in a video game and in which the patients can perform exercises. As a result, the patients are more immersed and motivated to avoid the boredom from which patients in standard therapy usually suffer. The features of artificial intelligence (AI) in biomedicine are the optimisation of diagnostics, treatment, and patient monitoring. AI allows for the analysis to have the potential to detect subtle deviations. In this chapter, the application of virtual reality and artificial intelligence in healthcare was discussed.
