Tech giant Apple is looking into using their virtual reality headset the Apple Vision Pro as a means of helping to diagnose and treat mental disorders.
Quoting anonymous sources, The Information reports that people within the company with direct knowledge of these talks claim the Vision Pro could measure a wearer’s facial expressions to detect depression, anxiety, or more. The headset can also purportedly display images and play back audio that could improve the wearer’s emotions.
Apple Insider added, ‘Apple staff including Mike Rockwell, leader of Apple’s Vision Products Group, have spent considerable time on the idea. They are also said to have hired health experts explicitly to explore such possible functions. Apple did not comment on the article. However, The Information says that many people who worked on Vision Pro over the last few years say that they had been extensively exploring such mental health ideas.’
‘In each case, the core concept is to use Vision Pro’s cameras and eye-tracking features to measure what’s called the wearer’s affect. “Affect” is a psychology term covering feelings and moods that a person has, and which our bodies indicate,’ Apple Insider also noted.
Moreover, Mac Rumors reported: ‘Apple has also apparently discussed using the Vision Pro’s infrared eye tracking-cameras to detect swelling in the blood vessels of the eyes to spot an early sign of heart failure. The company explored using the headset to detect weight changes and evaluate a user’s movement over time, using this data to screen for health issues such as Parkinson’s disease, but the feature had a major setback when Apple removed the full body-tracking capabilities from the Vision Pro due to unreliability.’
The Vision Pro is quite pricey retailing at $3,400, which is set to release in the Spring-2024. Offering such treatment capabilities may help to entice more people and clinics to adopt the VR goggles.
Or perhaps augmented reality could help with administering vaccinations? Some clinics around the world have given this a go and have reported successful results.
Oglivy Brazil reported on this concept in 2017, showing frightened children awaiting vaccination but were distracted and calmed down when wearing the VR headsets. “Fear and crying become fun and entertainment in a new campaign for Hermes Pardini Labs, the ‘VR Vaccine,” the publication said.
While the children got vaccinated the young patients were experiencing an interactive world that tricked the children into thinking that the needle being plunged into their arm was actually something else.
One mother said that her son “cried on all vaccines he took since he was born. This time he didn’t.”
Other clinics are doing something similar. In 2021 CBC did a story on a clinic in Quebec, Canada, that utilized “virtual reality games to distract kids from feeling pain or anxiety while getting a COVID-19 vaccine.” The reporter for CBC said, “Research has shown that distraction can be a powerful tool to help kids through the anxiety.”
And again, the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles has been trying VR to draw blood and provide other treatments since 2017.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
Honestly, this is just so disgusting. These doctors and nurses are now essentially spellbinding these children with hypnosis, and meaningless games and prizes and sounds so they can jab these kids up; and now apparently to treat “mental disorders.”
I had once said that we were going to start seeing more and more “studies” and “treatments” claiming that video games are a good tool for mental health. Well, now it’s increasingly playing out.

[20] O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: [21] Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen. 1 Timothy 6:20-21
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

The ideas Satan puts into these people’s heads! Cunning, sure. And plain, unadulterated evil. I believe we should try and think as they do in terms of understanding how they construct their endless schemes (Matt 10:16), so we could see them coming miles away. Fortunately through this website’s reports we are given much knowledge also. Though putting ourselves in their shoes, if done excessively can be harmful.
Even the Lord is saying in this verse that evil thoughts don’t come into his mind, such as defiling and sacrificing children. How much more for us men that are frail, corruptible and weak in the flesh to constantly think or see wickedness without taking breaks? Or without exercising proper balance and biblical moderation?
Jeremiah 19:5
5 they have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind:
I believe all wickedness would never had entered and be stuck in the Lord’s mind, if not for Satan coming up with these ideas, and man’s great evil in his own right, forcing God to see and think about these disgusting things that are continually being done, for thousands of years!
Not attempting to figure out God entirely, just my fallible thoughts. God forgive me if my understanding of this about him is wrong. I’m not sure that the Lord can or would choose to take breaks from vexing things like how we are able to take breaks (because of the Lord providing us with ways and means). He is forced to see and think about these things all the time (Psa 139:1-12, Prov 15:3, Prov 15:3, Jer 23:24, Eph 4:10) . Reason why he destroyed man with the flood, Sodom and Gomorrah with fire, other people that he killed directly and the rest of the wicked nations using war, famine and pestilence, including a lot of his own people. Plus he perfectly remembers everything. No wonder his wrath will be devastating in the time of Jacob’s trouble.
A pure, holy and righteous God, being offended for so long by mankind and Satan, both that he had meant to live a blessed life in the garden of Eden, and in heaven as his anointed cherub before they fell. Really makes you realize how evil and disgusting all of us are, and deserving of eternal hell if we had not chosen to repent and asked him for salvation.
Brother Lance, you definitely said a mouthful there, and I totally agree with you!

Did you see Amir Tsarfati’s news update yesterday re: the war? One of the cruelties the barbarians did was to put babies into kitchen ovens and to roast them alive…in front of their parents! Then they killed the parents. I’m tainted for life with that visualization. These players are definitely demon possessed.
I’ve seen Tsarfati on Youtube, not thoroughly aware of his work though. Does he believe that the KJB is God’s perfect word and the other English versions are Satanic? And calling to the Lord is part of salvation?
Genesis 6:5
“And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”
This stuff is so wicked. Not even I could imagine such a wicked thing. Doctors vaccines these children for the money (1 Tim. 6:10).
Joseph, did you see Amir Tsarfati’s news update yesterday re: the war? One of the cruelties the barbarians did was to put babies into kitchen ovens and to roast them alive…in front of their parents! Then they killed the parents. I’m tainted for life with that visualization. All these players (on every field) are definitely demon possessed.
My first thought was; ya cruel Bastards (pardon my words). I even started to tear up for those kids.
I know what should happen to those “adults”……
May the Lord fry their brains, those useless pieces of trash…
Mat_18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mat_18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
Greetings, David!
“May the Lord fry their brains, those useless pieces of trash…”
First of all, you can stop that prayer! 🙂 Don’t we already have more than enough evidence that their brains are already “fried”?!
Speaking of fried, did you see Amir Tsarfati’s news update yesterday re: the war? One of the cruelties the barbarians did was to put babies into kitchen ovens and to roast them alive…in front of their parents! Then they killed the parents.

Secondly, they’re not “useless”; God’s using them to bring about His end times plan and purpose! He’s using them to cause us even more to want to go Home! Grab your popcorn and watch the play. One of these days, God is going to say, “Enough! Go get ’em, Jesus!” It could be today, and I hope so!
Kanadastan (formerly known as “Canada”) has sidestepped this! Oh yes…we’re smarter than all the rest don’t you know! (SARCASM!!!)
Our government redefines “mental disorders”, makes up new ones, stresses people out until they don’t want to live anymore, pushes illegal drugs onto them to achieve addictions (new mental disorder), and then STRONGLY suggests they be MAid’ed…suicided.
Yep, we’re the smart dogs on the block alright! Escort them right into hell…”to save money”. It doesn’t get much more vile than that!
Upon further reflection, I cannot help but wonder…what kind of subliminal message(s) was planted into the child’s mind during that brief time? Suicidal or homicidal? When would it / they take effect? If it were possible, the angels would be working overtime making a sufficient number of mill stones…
