Abstract
Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is a technology already developed to assist cognitive psychologists and therapists in their clinical work with brain-damaged patients. The rationale, the software and the hardware of the first application (ARCANA 1) based on affordable technology are discussed here, in order to provide a concrete example of what the authors think may be the role of IVR as a clinical tool. Although prospects are exciting, extensive research is needed to validate this new approach and reveal its limitations and advantages.Entities:
