VR therapy is the use of virtual reality equipment and programs within a therapeutic setting, sometimes as the primary therapy used, to address both mental illness and physical injury. In many cases, VR headsets are used in combination with biometric sensors like heartbeat or electrodermal activity sensors.

Machine learning models help identify, analyze, and predict stress in individuals and larger populations. Stress management programs use these models to help people improve their responses to stressors and thus reduce their overall stress levels.

With the expanding online fitness and wearable health device industries, there is an increased interest in health-related apps and devices; stress management programs that integrate with these apps and devices should continue to grow in size and number.

Life insurance underwriting is the act of accepting liability under a life insurance policy. Insurers increasingly use machine learning to identify risk categories and recommend policies, faster and more accurately than humans alone.

In these times of lockdowns, these programs become especially important as people are more interested in life insurance but may only be reached remotely.

The online fitness industry consists of videos, video-based classes, personalized coaching, wearable technology, and more. An online fitness program uses data generated by users themselves to create a custom fitness coaching experience.

Online fitness has experienced a massive growth over the past year with lockdowns and is likely to stay very popular.

Athletic performance data measures an athlete’s performance as well as their overall health. This includes their history of injuries, current mood, stress levels, and more.

The system for maintaining a healthy body weight, human or animal, is weight management.

Whether for vehicles, industrial equipment, or mental health conditions, diagnosis is crucial to resolving problems but very difficult to do remotely. Thankfully, however, new advances in technology and artificial intelligence have made remote diagnostics possible.

Drug discovery covers the whole field of the drug development process, from identifying chemical compounds that could become useful drugs to the clinical trial phase. The drug discovery process is long and complicated, with every stage ripe for implementation of artificial intelligence models.

Machine learning models, referred to as EHRs (electronic health records) or EMRs (electronic medical records), help clinicians better manage patient health records through population management, diagnostics and smart documentation. Clinicians also use these models to perform other clinical tasks.

Insurance claims management is the process of managing a claim from reception to settlement. The insurance claim process is particularly suited to machine learning solutions as much can be done to cut time and costs, leading to speedier resolution of claims to the satisfaction of both insurer and insured.
