Summary
The paper describes a novel therapeutic tool that combines virtual reality exposure, biosensors, and speech emotion recognition to support people with stuttering. The VR system recreates public speaking scenarios and measures physiological and emotional responses in real-time. Preliminary evaluations suggest that immersive environments, combined with multimodal feedback, can provide effective and engaging interventions for speech therapy.
