Abstract

Adapting traditional behavioral therapy with eXtended Reality (XR) and physiological data allows phobia treatment for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Using systematic desensitization, our tool creates tailored virtual environments for stair-related phobias. Therapists guide the process, monitoring real-time data from the Head-Mounted Display and Empatica E4 wristband during the session. This approach promises a valid transition from classical to immersive therapies. A video demo can be seen in: https://youtu.be/pCvxhyyMpq0.
