At CES 2024, French startup Coreod Space revealed its Space Agent Traveler (SAT) VR helmet, which will use AI to provide psychological aid to future space colonists and users in other extreme situations. The SAT VR helmet will provide continuous support during arduous space missions and function as if it were an additional crew member.
Rather than using a simple app device functionality, Coreod Space decided to utilize VR due to the immersion it provides users. This immersion has particularly positive benefits in medicine and psychology, as highlighted by recent studies focused on the effective pain relief capacity displayed by the technology. This immersive experience is crucial for effective psychological support.
