VR headset invented by Kerala man’s firm set to rewrite stroke therapy

Compounding this challenge is a severe shortage of certified physiotherapists and the high cost of hospital-bound care, which leads many patients to abandon therapy mid-way.
A groundbreaking collaboration between Chennai-based immersive-technology firm Skillveri and Thiruvananthapuram’s Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology (SCTIMST) aims to rewrite this narrative using virtual reality (VR).
