Overview

 

The ClinicaVR:Classroom is an award winning VR application used by cognitive research scientists worldwide. The first version was delivered to researchers in 2003, and has since benefited from more than 5 years of frontline field experience.

 

The VR:Classroom software delivers proven test protocols from within a
believable and contextually valid virtual environment, providing results
which more accurately reflect how the patient will perform in the real world.

 

Initially developed for assessing attention processes in ADHD
children, this system is now being applied to other clinical targets
including the development of tests that address, other cognitive
functions, social anxiety disorders, drug efficacy testing,
as well as the creation of an earthquake safety training
for children with developmental and learning disabilities.

 

System

ClinicaVR:Classroom systems are developed and deployed on the familiar PC platform and do not demand exotic or propietary hardware in order to deliver excellent visuals and performance.

Immersion and control of visual stumuli is important in attention process measurement. That is why the the Classroom environment was designed to support a Head Mounted Display interface, allowing the participant 3 degrees of visual freedom and the ability to look around the environment in a natural and intuitive fashion.

Measurement

 

The ClinicaVR:Classroom has a range of tracking and reporting features built in and can be customized to fit different research or assessment protocols.   As an example, conducting a continuous performance task assessment tracks and reports a range of variables, inclduing response time, ommission and comission errors, total correct, hit variability, reaction time variability, indices of Sensitivity  and Bias.  

Motion data is also  gathered and reported from the HMD, such as average gaze vector and minimum and maximum head excursions.
