Episode 8: The US military is betting big on virtual reality

The future is now for virtual reality and augmented reality. The U.S. military knows it and is betting big on the technology.

The Army, for instance, has awarded a contract for more than $21 billion to develop VR headsets Integrated Visual Augmentation System, known as IVAS. The idea is that the headsets can warn soldiers of potential threats by overlaying intelligence information directly into their field of vision.

This episode of Military Matters examines the pros and cons of VR with experts in the field: Palmer Luckey of Anduril; Garth Smith and Gareth Seburn of MetaVR; Kevin Cornish of Moth+Flame Virtual Reality; and Tony Isaacs of PLW ModelWorks.

"The interesting thing about HoloLens and IVAS and all of this is that it's not a new idea," says Luckey, who founded Oculus VR and designed the Oculus Rift before moving on to Anduril. "If you look back into DOD history, this idea of putting a heads-up display and a computer and a radio on every fighter has been around for a very long time."

Virtual reality training whether it's completely virtual, augmented or a mix saves money, can be safer and expands training to include more people. But is replacing real bullets with pixels the way to go?

Yes. In part.

"You can actually learn," Luckey says. "You take the weapon, you have to do all of the proper manipulations. You know, you have to drop the magazine ... you lock the bolt back, put the new mag in. ... It's not the same as actually doing it for real. But if you know how to do it in VR, you will definitely be able to figure out what to do the first time you're handed the real thing.

"That's a big step from if you were just reading about it in a book."

The catch is understanding that VR, as good as it can be, can't completely capture the feeling of firing with live rounds.

Luckey: "I know the solution is not going to be don't use technology on your best day, because it will screw you on your worst days; use technology on your best day and be ready for that worst day."

Episode 8: The US military is betting big on virtual reality - Stars and Stripes

Captured on camera in a single take, 11:11 is a response to the growing disaffection induced by the pandemic in a year that has pushed us online with a vengeance.

Editor's note:WithFirstAct, Firstpost is collaborating with theatre and improv artists from all over India, who'll perform short pieces or readings over a Zoom video-conference call.

After FirstAct'sdebut showwith Improv Comedy Bangalore, followed by Drama Queen'sFor Tomorrow, Theatre Jil Jil Ramamani'sHaiku in a Bun, OGLAM'sAbey Yaar!, Chanakya Vyas'Leftovers, MD Pallavi'sSalt, Akhoka Theatre'sBetween the Banks, and Alienstar Collective's Star Light we are all set to present our next 11:11.It will be broadcast on ourFacebook,YouTubeandInstagrampages (IGTV) at7.30pmIST on23 April, 2020.

Following is an edited excerpt of an interaction between the director Vikram Phukan,the performerPratik Karyakarte and collaborators in the project, Chinmay Pawar, Deepmala Khera and Jai Khadilkarof Theatre Jil Jil Ramamani and Unbox Pune's upcoming production -11:11on Firstpost.

On 11:11s raison detre

VIKRAM:We developed this physical theatre performance, 11:11, on virtual reality therapy, using a performers involuntary movements when immersed in a simulated interactive environment, as a launchpad to devise new corporeal expression. We explore how the VR in-world' works in opposition to the actual world in which the subject is effectively rendered blind by their headset. Pratik rehearsed in a green screen equipped studio in Pune, from where the piece was to be streamed, with live edits, to online audiences. Eventually, for this first showing, we decided to create a pre-recorded cut after capturing the performance on camera in a single take after weeks of rehearsals.

The idea of VR as a therapeutic aid, comes under the ambit of Dry Ice, my play on the spate of early deaths among queer people in India with depression among the silent killers. VR therapy is gaining currency in Indian psychiatric practice. Our focus, which is quite preliminary at this stage, is on its effects on characters states of mind. This will be eventually juxtaposed with a performance by actor Rushab Kamdar on meth use (another scourge), where the firing of electrical impulses (the bodys native tech) results in its own altered experiences.

On working remotely

PRATIK:After the global pandemic, this was the first experiment we did with the help of Zoom. Needless to say, it was quite a different experience...Working online might be easy for those who are used to the screen daily. But for theatre artists, it is difficult at the outset itself even if Zoom was the only way for the team to stay connected with each other.

As a movement artist, I faced a lot of problems during the process. Sometimes working in a 16:9 format (which is ultimately how audiences receive the work) makes you stubborn and resist the process. But we managed to make peace with this situation and work towards creating a good piece. I tried to keep my calm throughout whilenegotiating the physical and emotional situations demanded by the piece, within that restricted space! Sometimes the environment may not favour the actor, but we should learn to find comfort within the constraints.

On what the title '11:11' signifies

JAI:'11:11'- the title alone makes me think of the 11th hour, right before the dead of night when it's time to unwind; the very last moment when you come home to your truth, shedding skin, shedding the remains of the day. Its then that they are what they are, rather than what they choose to be, it's what they'd experience rather than what they're forced to go through. It may be the 11th hour and yet ironically, it's not too late for them to be seen.

On the process behind staging the piece

CHINMAY:Working on 11:11 has been an interesting journey. Till now, I have been doing live theatre performances and this was my first virtual play. To be honest, initially, I was quite confused about how things should be carried out on a virtual platform. Vikram took us through different processes that helped me understand the ways in which we would present this play. No doubt there were some creative differences I guess communicating remotely was one of the reasons for this because for me it becomes difficult to visualise things on a Zoom call, but eventually things fell into place, though it took some time.

Processes like working with a notated choreographic score, creating devised work while blindfolded, or using involuntary movements, were interesting and helpful and working with different artists also provided interesting insight. I would love to see this project performed in front of a live audience.

DEEPMALA:Virtual reality therapy uses very special programs, visual immersion devices and artificially created environments, to give us simulated experiences. These experiences are useful in treating psychological conditions and challenges faced by patients. This is a very safe method of therapy as you are in a safe environment, like your home, and you're interacting with only as much stimuli as you can handle as you start desensitising yourself to social anxieties, like the fear of heights, for instance. Our process was to introduce Pratik to virtual environments, where he was given an initiation statement and some directives, and watch how he was able to negotiate entire worlds, through his body, and his expressions. The room gets converted into wherever the simulation, fueled by his own imagination, took him, which in turn became material that the team discussed and repurposed to create 11:11.

FirstAct: In 11:11, an experimental performance that explores virtual reality as a therapeutic aid - Firstpost

The New Jersey Devils and virtual reality training company Sense Arena have signed a deal that will bring the teams new official cognitive training tool to both Devils pros and youth hockey players.

Sense Arena offers evaluation and training modules designed to improve both skaters and goalies decision-making abilities and reaction times without having to step onto the ice. Users wearing a VR headset are put onto the virtual ice, where they can react to simulated plays and attempt to stop realistic shots.

The Devils performance department will implement the software, while activations are planned within Prudential Center as well as throughout New Jersey to go with digital content sponsorship.

Sense Arenas ability to hone skills critical to overall player improvement and peak performance in an off-ice simulation is an edge for players at all levels of our organization, Devils vice president of athlete care Chris Stackpole said. The focus on simulating game action without requiring the on-ice setting is an added resource to benefit our players training.

Two trendsrink closures due to COVID-19 and cheaper, high-quality virtual reality hardwarehave brought VR training to the fore.

Sense Arena, which launched its first tool for PC-powered VR headsets in 2019, reached new consumers last year after releasing its goalie tool for the standalone Oculus Quest. It plans to add capability for all players in June and has now been installed more than 1,000 times.

Sense Arena founder and CEO Bob Tetiva said the company has raised more than $3 million in seed funding to help him possibly settle the argument over whether greats, like Wayne Gretzky, were born with a sixth sense on the ice.

I strongly believe it can be developed, Tetiva said. You just need to have the right environment. That, for us, is VR.

VR also allows players to get reps, either while rehabbing or while avoiding unneeded physical strain. For kids, it can provide a more active gaming experience, as well as improved access year round. Tetiva said Sense Arena is thinking about when to expand into other sports as well.

This should be a new category in athletic training, he said.

After confirming earlier this year that the PS5 will be receiving a new VR headset peripheral, Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan has further outlined the companys commitment to all things virtual reality.

In an interview with Nikkei (flagged by Upload VR), Ryan confirmed that PlayStation has big VR plans. He said: The next generation VR system is a very strategic opportunity for PlayStation. We launched PSVR in 2016 and have had time to understand the VR experience for years. What I learned from VR is that the potential market is huge.

PlayStations first foray into VR has sold more than five million units as of January 2020. So there is clearly significant demand for virtual reality experiences among console gamers. Sonys next-gen VR headset is primed to push the needle even further forward bringing experiences not capable on the first PSVR headset to console players.

The PSVR has often earned praise for not relying on gimmicks and instead offering users a range of fully-fleshed-out gaming experiences. It seems that is the objective once again with the PSVR 2.

I want to continue to provide a high gaming experience to keep the community entertained, said Ryan.

We already know of at least one PS5 VR game currently in development, and there has been some speculation that the headset could receive a port of the critical acclaimed VR game Half-Life: Alyx. Wed also love to see Team ASOBI, who created Astro Bot: Recuse Mission one of the original PSVRs best games, given the opportunity to make another Astro Bot game as the little guy is becoming something of PlayStation mascot at this point.

In terms of the PSVR 2 headset itself, we dont know what it will actually look like but we have had confirmation that it will connect to the PS5 via a single cord, which is a great relief as the first PSVR requires a nightmare of cable spaghetti to function. Sony has given us a look at its next-gen VR controllers though, and they look like a huge upgrade from the PlayStation Move wands used by the current PSVR headset.

Its already been confirmed that the PSVR 2 wont be releasing this year (maybe because Sony cant even get PS5 restocks under control). But well likely hear more about the headset throughout 2021 as its clearly a key area that PlayStation is committed to long-term.

Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality in Healthcare Market Estimated to Expand at a Robust CAGR By 2027 The Courier - The Courier

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) Virtual reality is a well-known tool to help people escape this world and go to a desirable place. Although, this tool has helped individuals go on vacation amid the pandemic, exercise, and even learn a new language by creating an avatar its being used to target mental health problems.

Jonah Magar, a virtual reality coordinator at Michigan State Universitys library, helps students understand virtual reality before they go overseas for study abroad programs. Mager also teaches how this tool could be useful for everyday activities, like, having a virtual personal trainer for exercise.

Mager states an individual can utilize a virtual reality set by using a computer. Usually, There are headphones, special gloves, some kind of control mechanism, or in some cases people can use their naked hands. All of these pieces of equipment work together to stimulate your senses in order to create the illusion of reality.

So, with the way these devices work you see these cameras in the corners here that maps to the room, Mager said, and are able to tell how you move and how far you move, and what direction you move.

Therefore, every sensation a person can feel, hear, and see feels like its real-life. Dr. Anatol Tolchinsky is the Director of medical education for McLaren Greater Lansing, and also is a clinical health psychologist. Dr. Tolchinsky says health experts can utilize virtual reality exposure therapy to help in their fight against PTSD, certain phobias, anxiety, and people suffering from other addictions.

When we have the appropriate coping strategies and we face our fears they start to have less of an effect on us,Dr. Tolchinsky suggested, a term that we use in psychology is desensitization. We are less sensitive to the stimulus or whatever is making us scared or anxious.

He says when people interact with virtual reality it can place them in the flight, or fight stage to help individuals overcome their mental-health issues firsthand. Dr. Tolchinsky also says this tool works as therapy when a person slowly becomes exposed to their fear.

You can start with a picture of a mouse, or talk to them about a mouse and ask them where their stress or anxiety level is, Dr. Tolchinsky stated, and then do coping strategies like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, mindfulness techniques, and then ask them where their stress level is usually if it works its lower.

This version of coping with anxiety, fears, PTSD, and other phobias is safe. Dr. Tolchinsky says health experts know its working when they ask their patients their stress-level before and after a treatment. If you want to try virtual reality exposure therapy Dr. Tolchinsky recommends contacting a clinician, and doing some research on the clinic first. He says this type of therapy is usually uncommon.

You cant just go to a mental health clinic and expect vr treatment often these kinds of treatments are in specialized facilities, Dr. Tolchinsky said. A person can do this kind of intervention from home and it could be run by a clinician in another place, and especially with COVID-19, and all the worries that come with exposure to the pandemic this is still can be really helpful.

Most importantly, Dr. Tolchinsky suggests to be extremely careful before starting this type of therapy.

There are always limits and often anything in excess can become problematic, Dr. Tolchinsky suggested.

Virtual reality exposure therapy could help people battling mental illness - WLNS

The following blog post, unless otherwise noted, was written by a member of Gamasutras community.The thoughts and opinions expressed are those of the writer and not Gamasutra or its parent company.

Virtual reality (VR) is specified as creating substitute competence which is somewhat similar to the real-time circumstance. In 1994 first virtual reality-based modelling language was first projected, and also used for humanizing the virtual globe to conquer the food craving over headsets. The virtual reality is an imitation by using the computer/communication gadgets past the borders.

The reviewed benefits of virtual reality can play an essential role in successfully and also fruitfully addressing the cases throughout recurring pandemic COVID-19 favorably. Fig. 1 shows the necessary devices required for the appropriate implantation of the virtual reality technique for COVID-19.
