The Revistim platform consists in several hardware devices and software tools for the immersion of subjects, the collection of various subjective, physiological and behavioral data as well as the use of new psychotherapeutic systems. The platform is used both for research in neuro-psychiatry (diagnosis, rehabilitation and treatment) and user experience modeling. Considering care, the main objective is to propose personalized care in psychiatry through the assessment of the patient state, the priorisation of targeted interventions, and an efficient evaluation of the VR therapy on the different dimensions of the disease.
