Future Apple Vision Pro could help the injured avoid medication addiction

Apple is researching the use of mixed reality in the Apple Vision Pro as a potential tool for pain relief. The device could detect discomfort in users and adjust content accordingly to distract them from their pain. Apple's patent describes a system where the device tracks a user's attentiveness and adjusts content to mitigate discomfort. It could also simulate realistic mirror images of missing limbs or simulate the appearance of unaffected skin. This technology could potentially reduce the use of relief medication and lower the risk of addiction. Apple's focus on health products and technologies is expanding, with the Apple Vision Pro potentially playing a key role in the future.
