Abstract

Virtual Reality therapy (VRT), dependent upon this modern innovation, has been as of late utilized as a part of the medication of subjects diagnosed with acrophobia, a phobia that is described by marked anxiety upon exposureness to heights .Conventional VR frameworks for the medication of acrophobia have limits, over-excessive cost or to some degree unlikely realistic graphics.
