Producto
La realidad virtual (VR) inmersiva es una herramienta que permite a las personas con déficits sensoriomotores y trastornos del equilibrio adquirir destrezas y habilidades, mediante entornos reales digitales tridimensionales (3D) donde se crean escenas en 360° que permiten experimentar, moverse, desplazarse y percibir determinadas situaciones en un entorno seguro. La combinación de protocolos convencionales de fisioterapia con el uso de este tipo de sistemas de entrenamiento con realidad virtual (RV) optimiza los resultados de los ejercicios. Se han diseñado diferentes entornos en función de las condiciones iniciales del usuario y de los logros a alcanzar.
