The virtual situation incorporates an open lift encompassed by props by the side of a tower, which permits the patient to feel a feeling of heights. The viability of the VE was assessed through the clinical medicine of a subject who was experiencing the fear. Subsequently, it was demonstrated that this VR environment was adequate and reasonable at succeeding acrophobia agreeing not just to the examination comes about of assortment of questionnaires prior and then afterward medication additionally to the subject's remarks that the VE appeared to inspire more fearful emotions than the true situation.
