近十年沉浸式虚拟现实技术 在自闭症矫治中的应用及展望

The Application and Prospectsof Immersive Virtual Reality Technology in the Treatment of Autism Spectrum Disordersin the Last Decade

自闭症谱系障碍的矫治一直是特殊教育中的难点,沉浸式虚拟现实技术为突破这一难点带来了新的希望。近十年来沉浸式虚拟现实技术在自闭症矫治中的研究纵向上呈现出两条清晰的发展脉络,研究任务的逐次推进与深化以及仪器设备的更新和迭代;横向上的研究议题则集中在特定恐惧、社交与生活技能、情感识别与表达以及非言语交际这四个方面。为发挥沉浸式虚拟现实技术在自闭症矫治中的最大效用,在未来的研究中,需要注重设备优化与技术提升、增强技术平台的通用性,并与最新的脑科学研究手段结合来进行更为透彻的生理机制研究。

The treatment of autism spectrum disorders has always been a difficulty in special education.Immersive virtual reality technology brings a new hope to break through it.In the past ten years(2009-2019),the research of immersive virtual reality technology in the treatment of autism presents two clear developmental pathways longitudinally:the successive advancement and deepening of research tasks,and the updating and iteration of instruments and equipment;horizontalresearch topics focus on specific fear,social and life skills,emotion recognition and expression,and non-verbal communication.In order to make the most use of immersion virtual reality technology,it is necessary to focus on upgrading equipment,enhancing the universality of technology platform,and combining with the latest brain science to study the physiological mechanism more thoroughly in the future.
