Neuroroads VR Rehabilitation Enhances Road-Crossing Skills in Children with Autism, Down’s Syndrome, and Healthy Peers
摘要
Neuroroads is a virtual reality (VR) training game designed to help children with disabilities, such as autism, Down syndrome, and developmental disorders, as well as healthy children, practice safe road-crossing behaviors. The therapy game simulates real-world environments, including various street and traffic conditions, allowing children to improve their motor skills and safety awareness in a controlled, immersive setting. Children can get used to cross the street in a simulated real-life scenarios and improve their spatial awareness and skills. By using the game, doctors can reduce the need for outdoor training sessions, thus minimizing the risk associated with real-world exposure. The system adapts to each child's progress, providing personalized feedback and a structured progression through increasingly complex scenarios. Neuroroads aims to support both children and healthcare professionals by making therapy more engaging and effective.
