Virtual reality (VR) clinical applications are often computer graphics- based which are costly and time-consuming to create. Panoramic immersive video may offer a more efficient, cost-effective alternative to developing immersive virtual environments. Research is needed to assess the potential of this technology for clinical applications in healthcare. This is the first study to examine the psychophysiologic effects of panoramic video display compared to a flat screen display for cue reactivity. Sixty participants viewed video anger vignettes through either a head-mounted display with panoramic viewing capabilities or on a flat-screen computer monitor. Outcome measures included assessment of emotional reactivity, state anger, presence, blood pressure, electrodermal response, heart rate, and respiration.
