Abstract
A virtual reality therapy system is described. The virtual reality system includes a virtual reality headset, a garment, and an electronic device. The garment having at least one sensor, the at least one sensor configured to generate sensor data based upon movement. The electronic device is in communication with the virtual reality headset and receives the sensor data, or data based on the sensor data. The electronic device projects a virtual reality environment to the virtual reality headset based upon data generated by the at least one sensor of the garment.
Claims21
A virtual reality therapy system, comprising:
- a virtual reality headset;
- a garment having at least one sensor associated therewith, the at least one sensor configured to generate sensor data based upon movement;
- and
- an electronic device, in communication with the virtual reality headset and receiving the sensor data, or data based on the sensor data, wherein the electronic device projects a virtual reality environment to the virtual reality headset based at least in part upon data generated by the at least one sensor of the garment.
A method of using a virtual reality therapy system, comprising:
- receiving a therapeutic virtual reality environment into an electronic device;
- connecting the electronic device to a virtual reality headset and a garment, wherein the garment includes at least one sensor;
- receiving by the electronic device positional data from the at least one sensor of the garment, the positional data being indicative of an actual position of the user while the user is wearing the garment;
- comparing by the electronic device the actual position of the user to an aspirational position of the user;
- and
- adjusting the therapeutic virtual reality environment at least in part in response to the comparison of the positional data to the aspirational position of the user by the electronic device.
An electronic device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- computer instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium accessible by the processor, the computer instructions when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
- receive positional data from at least one sensor positioned on a garment, and
- project a virtual reality environment to a virtual reality headset based at least in part upon the positional data generated by the at least one sensor on the garment.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
- receive a therapeutic virtual reality environment into an electronic device;
- connect the electronic device to a virtual reality headset and a garment, wherein the garment includes at least one sensor;
- receive by the electronic device positional data from the at least one sensor of the garment, the positional data being indicative of an actual position of the user while the user is wearing the garment;
- compare by the electronic device the actual position of the user to an aspirational position of the user;
- and
- adjust the therapeutic virtual reality environment at least in part in response to the comparison of the positional data to the aspirational position of the user by the electronic device.
