title: [The prospects of research on VR rehabilitation engineering].
abstract: In this paper, we present the recent development of Vitual Reality (VR) technology and rehabilitation engineering and discuss the rationality and feasibility of the application of VR to rehabilitation. With VR technology, psychological induction can be better introduced in rehabilitating exercises and patients can be tremendously released from fret during traditional physical training for rehabilitation. The VR is expected to bring about a technological revolution in rehabilitation engineering.
