This is a Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084). The $1,000,000 award to Immergo Labs, Inc. supports the development of an immersive virtual reality (VR) platform for remote physical therapy and monitoring. The proposed innovation aims to increase the affordability, accessibility, and accuracy of physical therapy through an embodied telehealth solution with 3D virtual avatars and predictive AI tools. This will enable real-time assessment of patient biomechanics and provide normative metrics to improve remote physical therapy care. The project involves iterative prototyping and user-centered design to establish in-patient success metrics and full-body virtual assessment capabilities. This technology has the potential to lower hospital visits, enable clinics to remain open during pandemics, and decrease costs for patients and clinics while detecting physical health needs earlier to better manage recovery.
