According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Millions of people throughout the globe suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which often causes chronic anxiety, flashbacks, and decreased everyday functioning. Conventional therapy, including cognitive-behavioural and pharmaceutical treatments, have 5 drawbacks such as patient disengagement, uneven results, and a lack of real-time adaptation. Emerging technologies, notably Virtual Reality (VR) and the Internet of Things (IoT), have transformational promise for mental health therapies. This work presents an IoT-powered VR platform for dynamic immersive treatment in PTSD that combines real-time physiological and behavioural monitoring with adaptive VR situations. The technology uses 10 data such as heart rate variability, galvanic skin reaction, and motion patterns to dynamically adjust virtual settings, increasing therapeutic exposure while reducing patient suffering. By merging IoT-enabled sensors with immersive VR, the platform personalises treatment, increases patient engagement, and allows for continuous monitoring of therapeutic effectiveness. Preliminary findings indicate that this strategy may speed symptom reduction, 15 improve emotional control, and offer a scalable, patient-centered solution for PTSD treatment."
