Within academia, society and industry, currently much attention is paid to Virtual Reality and Physiological Measurements for Training and Therapy. To realize knowledge dissemination between these different parties, VU Amsterdam and TU Delft organize this symposium. The program will include plenary talks, demos, and parallel presentation sessions, all with the main aim to exchange scientific knowledge about the current state-of-the-art, tighten the cross-fertilization and collaboration between academia, industry and society, and promote and improve existing products.

Participants

Participants are invited from each of the areas mentioned above, i.e., people from academia (researchers in human-computer interaction, virtual reality, intelligent systems, emotion regulation, and so on), industry (especially companies with an interest in IT and serious games), and society (potential end users from the police, military, public transport, health care, among others).
