    Since Virtual reality is a simulated environment, simulator sickness is a concern for the user. Wearing Virtual Reality headset for a long period of time could cause discomfort and poor depth perception for students. [32] This is potentially caused by the short distance between the electronic screen and the eyes of the user. [32]

  4. Reality–virtuality continuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realityvirtuality_continuum

    Mediated reality continuum showing four points: augmented reality, augmented virtuality, mediated reality, and mediated virtuality on the virtuality and mediality axes. This continuum has been extended into a two-dimensional plane of virtuality and mediality. [2] Taxonomy of reality, virtuality, mediality. The origin R denotes unmodified reality.

    With neurodegenerative diseases, virtual reality has been used to simulate situations that train memory but aren't reproduce in a standard treatment environment. [20] Virtual reality may also be used for interfacing with a patient in their home, with data sent directly to the physician, or creating games that would encourage these exercises. [20]
