Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR) technologies have become a popular area of study in recent years. These technologies were found to be effective in various useful applications to support People with Disabilities (PWD). The present article explores the current trends addressing the role and applications of VR in supporting individuals with disabilities. It presents the advantages of VR, and how they can be used as assistive technologies to minimize the effects of disabilities and increase the independency of PWD. It also explores a range of successful VR applications for PWD and an example of an assistive VR application in Mada center to support people with disabilities.
