Echo of Chaos is a simulation-based exploration of neurodiversity and sensory perception. Set in a virtual office environment, the project uses biosensor and ambient data to simulate sensory overload, allowing neurotypical users to experience a glimpse of neurodivergent reality. Paired with structured in-person dialogue, the experience is designed to foster empathy, bridge sensory misunderstandings, and promote inclusive communication. Built by an interdisciplinary team spanning computer science, media art, medicine, business, and data science, the project highlights how immersive technologies can promote mutual understanding and reduce stigma around neurodivergent experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact \/ Outreach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What if empathy could be simulated? Echo of Chaos uses VR and biosensor feedback to model sensory overload, offering a shared entry point for open dialogue between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals. Its goal: deeper understanding, less stigma, more inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
