Abstract
The text explores the transformative impact of virtual reality, augmented reality, and the metaverse on human experiences. These technologies offer new ways of interaction and learning, revolutionizing sectors such as education, mental health, and entertainment. Immersion and controlled manipulation of the virtual environment are crucial in creating engaging experiences, supporting personal transformation. Presence in virtual environments plays a key role, inducing a feeling of being physically immersed. The therapeutic use of virtual reality shows promise for mental and neurological disorders, providing a safe space to confront fears and anxieties. However, constant development of standardized protocols is necessary to ensure personalized and effective therapies. Responsible use of immersive technologies is essential to avoid issues of excessive virtual identity and addiction. Interdisciplinary research and ethics will guide the future application of these technologies, opening new perspectives in understanding the human mind and enhancing overall well-being.
