Learn More About VR-NR

Self-regulation through Neuro-regulation (NR):

  • Measure brain states, with EEG (electroencephalography)

  • Give neurofeedback, through gamification

  • Self-regulate, with brain training

No requirement for expensive EEG equipment,

Not only do we give neurofeedback in 2D,

Virtual Reality (VR) Psychology meets
Neuroregulation (NR) Physiology

Virtual Reality (VR) Psychology:

  • Immersive Presence
  • Emotional Salience
  • Realism and Surrealism

Neuroregulation (NR) Physiology:

  • Effects on CNS (Central Nervous System, e.g., EEG)
  • Effects on SNS (Sympathetic NS, e.g., Heart-rate [HR])
  • Effects on PNS (Parasympathetic NS, e.g., HR Variability [HRV])

Frequently Asked Questions

  • NO, you do NOT need a VR headset to use VR-NR in 2D format. BUT, if you want to do immersive NR in 3D, than YES, YOU WILL need a Meta Quest VR headset. VR headsets are sold separately on the Meta Store. You may also consider purchasing the (optional) link cable.

  • YES, you DO need a Muse EEG headset to use VR-NR. EEG headsets are sold separately on the Choose Muse Store.

  • YES, you DO need a Windows computer to use VR-NR. Most medium-end PCs will be suitable for use in 2D format, but use in 3D format requires a suitable GPU. You can check out if your current PC is VR ready.

  • We will be releasing a BEGINNER version of VR-NR designed for plug-and-play wellness activities in the future. BUT, YES, to use of the current CLINICAL-RESEARCH version requires suitable training in psychology and neuroscience, particularly an understanding of real-time EEG analysis. To find suitable education or treatment providers you may wish to consult ISNR or related clinical-research societies.

  • YES, there is a user manual that comes with the software download and we host online trainings on this website.
