Abstract

Disgust is an example of psychological disorder. It is very universal to human being. Everyone feels disgusted on something such as spider, blood, dirty toilet and others. There are treatments that can reduce the disgust feeling towards something. Some researchers said that psychological disorder can be treated by using augmented reality and it includes this disgust feeling. Since disgust traditional treatment happen on the real situation for example, disgust of wet rubbish with maggots; therapist need to re create the situation or might even have to take the patients to the location to conduct the treatment. But, by using augmented reality, therapist does not have to create the disgusted object or does not have to take the patients to the location since the treatment using augmented reality can be conducted in a controlled room. Moreover, researchers mentioned that augmented reality can provide a reality presence of the object or the situation and can ensure the patients' safety. This project paper will be discussed on the details of the treatment of disgust using augmented reality.
