Emerging Technologies

Project Description

For this project I had to chose an emerging technology to research create a presentation based on my findings.

Presentation

Lessons Learned 

Exploring the emerging technologies in trauma therapy has revealed just how transformative methods like VR, AR, AI, and video-based rehabilitation can be for mental health care. These innovations offer new, engaging ways to treat trauma, from controlled exposure therapy to AI-powered mental health assessments. Along with these advances, I also learned about the very important ethical considerations. For example, data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the risk of emotional overload must be managed to ensure these methods are used safely and accurately. My favorite discovery was learning about the advanced systems being developed for amputee soldiers, combining VR and AI to aid in both physical and psychological rehabilitation. This struck a personal chord, as someone close to me could truly benefit from such a system, and I can't wait to share this promising information with them.
