Editor's Notes
- Exposure therapy is an accepted form of treating phobias by gradually exposing a user to their fear to retrain their brains.
- Training screen Users start in a calm, relaxed speaking environment – a room with no one inside They then choose a speech or upload their own Voice recognition technology tracks how they are going, the dynamic of their voices, and increases the difficulty accordingly. As they deliver a speech, they can also rotate their body to control the ambience and setting, and nod their head to increase difficulty and random disruptions (eg. Phone ringing, technical difficulties). Each room has different sound, lighting and texture qualities used to increase the fear of the situation.
- Intuitive and easy
