چکیده

Virtual Reality (VR) is a recent technology to assist in therapy and neurorehabilitation. In doing so, VR enables a realistic performance, with higher motivation and immersion in the problematic situation. VR increases ecological value and skills generalization; however this technology is still disorder-oriented. Patient’s response to treatment differs from patient to patient. So it is relevant to take into consideration a multitude of aspects, self-referencing VR Programs for Neurorehabilitation. We argue the need to create a variety of scenarios that better adapt to psychological, developmental and ecological characteristics of each patient.

Remote Interrogation of WDM Fiber-Optic Intensity Sensors Deploying Delay Lines in the Virtual Domain

In this work a radio-frequency self-referencing WDM intensity-based fiber-optic sensor operating in reflective configuration and using virtual instrumentation is presented. The use of virtual delay lines at the reception stage, along with novel flexible self-referencing techniques, and using a single frequency, avoids all-optical or electrical-based delay lines approaches. This solution preserv...

Self-endorsing versus Other-endorsing in Virtual Environments: the Effect on Brand Attitude and Purchase Intention

Self-endorsing—the portrayal of potential consumers using products—is a novel advertising strategy made possible by the development of virtual environments. Three experiments compared self-endorsing to endorsing by an unfamiliar other. In Experiment 1, self-endorsing in online advertisements led to higher brand attitude and purchase intention than other-endorsing. Moreover, photographs were a m...
