Interactive virtual reality training

"The proposed VR intervention program will provide active training to be performed individually 4 times a week for 20 minutes a session.~The intervention program will be supervised by qualified, experienced physiotherapists, and will include individual training and two follow up meetings during the study period. The intervention program will include strengthening and endurance exercises for the cervical and shoulder girdle muscles. Training will include sensorimotor control and functional, quick, accurate, neck motion, using interactive VR training systems. This type of advanced training is very relevant to the pilots function in the cockpit as it includes interactive tasks aimed to increase range, speed, smoothness, accuracy, and control of cervical motion."
