An adaptive audio rendering system is disclosed for conditioning an individual to real-world environments through variable audio output in computer simulations. The subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified sensory load level. Responsive to an increase in sensory load level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the quantity of audio information such as background noise, background dialog, foreground dialog and foreground noise. The human subject adapts to increasingly complex environments by this modulation of audible information.

Sensory determinative adaptive audio rendering

An adaptive computer simulation rendering system is disclosed for conditioning an individual having Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to real-world environments through variable sensory output in computer simulations. The subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified sensory load level. Responsive to an increase in sensory load level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the sensor load on the individual. The human subject adapts to increasingly complex environments by this modulation of simulation thereby providing therapeutic benefit to the individual with ASD.

Simulation therapy for autism spectrum disorder

An adaptive computer simulation rendering system is disclosed for conditioning an individual suffering from a stress disorder, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), to real-world environments through variable sensory output in computer simulations. The subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified sensory load level. Responsive to an increase in sensory load level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the sensor load on the individual. The human subject adapts to increasingly complex environments by this modulation of simulation.

Therapeutic simulator system for stress disorders

An apparatus is disclosed for conditioning and adapting an individual to real-world environments through computer simulations. The subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified sensory load level. Responsive to an increase in sensory load level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the sensory complexity of one or more features of the simulation wherein the human subject adapts to increasingly complex environments.

Adaptive simulation rendering on sensory load

An apparatus is disclosed for conditioning and adapting an individual having an environmental anxiety disorder to real-world environments through computer simulations. The subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified anxiety level. Responsive to an increase in anxiety level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the sensory complexity of one or more features of the simulation wherein the human subject adapts to increasingly complex environments.

Physiologic responsive rendering of computer simulation

An apparatus is disclosed for developing routine and specific task competencies of an individual having an environmental anxiety disorder. The subject is tasked with an executive function wherein the subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified anxiety level. Responsive to an increase in anxiety level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the sensory complexity of one or more features of the simulation wherein the human subject therapeutically develops proficiency in executive functions in increasingly complex environments.
