dc.description.abstract | We present the OCTAVIS system, a novel virtual reality platform developed for rehabilitation and training of patients with brain function disorders. To meet the special requirements of clinical studies, our system has been designed with ease of use, patient safety, ease of maintenance, space and cost efficiency in mind. Patients are sitting on a rotating office chair in the center of eight touch screen displays arranged in octagon around them, thereby providing a 360 horizontal panorama view. Navigation is intuitively controlled through chair rotation and a joystick in the armrest. A touch interface enables easy object selection. The OCTAVIS system has been successfully deployed to four hospitals. We report first results of clinical studies conducted with patients and control groups, demonstrating that our system is immersive, easy to use, and supportive for rehabilitation purposes. | en_US |
