People in palliative care are dealing with serious, non-curable illness. Every day can be filled with severe physical, psychological and emotional pain. Palliative care staff work hard to help make patients as comfortable as possible and provide strong emotional support. Meaningful activities can help but patients often aren’t well enough to do the things they really love, such as travel. We wondered whether virtual reality (VR) could help. To find out, we supported 16 palliative care patients in an acute ward to do three 20-minute VR sessions, and asked them how they felt before and after eac...

In a recent study published in theJournal of Sex & Marital Therapy, researchers from the University of British Columbia explored how virtual reality (VR) erotica affects women’s anxiety levels. This first-of-its-kind study found that women experienced an increase in anxiety after viewing sexual films in VR compared to 2D films, especially when the VR films presented a first-person perspective. Previous studies have established the efficacy of VR-based treatments for anxiety disorders, yet little was known about how VR could be applied to address sexual difficulties. Given the pivotal role of a...

By Jonny Evans From its Darwin AI acquisition to recent reports claiming Apple might work with Google and others to support a wider array of generative AI (genAI) tools than it plans to introduce, it’s pretty clear the company has chosen to be focused in where it creates its own AI technologies. At least one of these focus areas reflects work the company has been doing since before AI became a buzzword — and that’s vision intelligence. Intimations of lifeBy this, I specially mean AI that can understand what it sees, contextualize that information, make decisions based on it, change or alter th...
