Urge To Smoke

BACKGROUND The recent widespread availability of augmented reality via smartphone offers an opportunity to translate cue exposure therapy for smoking cessation from the laboratory to the real world. Despite significant reductions in the smoking rates in the last decade, approximately 13.7% of the adults in the United States continue to smoke. Smoking-related cue exposure has demonstrated promise as an adjuvant therapy in the laboratory, but practical limitations have prevented its success in the real world. Augmented reality technology presents an innovative approach to overcome these limitations. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop a smartphone app that presents smoking-related augmented reality images for cue exposure. Smokers provided feedback on the images and reported on the perceived urge to smoke, qualities of reality/coexistence, and general feedback about quality and functioning. The feedback was used to refine the augmented reality images within the app. METHODS In collaboration with an augmented reality design company, we developed 6 smoking-related images (cigarette, lighter, ashtray, lit cigarette in ashtray, etc) and 6 neutral images similar in size or complexity for comparison (pen, eraser, notebook, soda bottle with droplets, etc). Ten smokers completed a survey of demographic characteristics, smoking history and behavior, dependence on nicotine, motivation to quit smoking, and familiarity with augmented reality technology. Then, participants viewed each augmented reality image and provided ratings on 10-point Likert scales for urge to smoke and reality/coexistence of the image into the scene. Participants were also queried with open-ended questions regarding the features of the images. RESULTS Of the 10 participants, 5 (50%) had experienced augmented reality prior to the laboratory visit, but only 4 of those 5 participants used augmented reality at least weekly. Although the sample was small (N=10), smokers reported significantly higher urge to smoke after viewing the smoking-related augmented reality images (median 4.58, SD 3.49) versus the neutral images (median 1.42, SD 3.01) (Z=–2.14, <i>P</i>=.03; <i>d</i>=0.70). The average reality and coexistence ratings of the images did not differ between smoking-related and neutral images (all <i>P</i>&gt;.29). Augmented reality images were found on average to be realistic (mean [SD] score 6.49 [3.11]) and have good environmental coexistence (mean [SD] score 6.93 [3.04]) and user coexistence (mean [SD] score 6.38 [3.27]) on the 10-point scale. Participant interviews revealed some areas of excellence (eg, details of the lit cigarette) and areas for improvement (eg, stability of images, lighting). CONCLUSIONS All images were generally perceived as being realistic and well-integrated into the environment. However, the smoking augmented reality images produced higher urge to smoke than the neutral augmented reality images. In total, our findings support the potential utility of augmented reality for cue exposure therapy. Future directions and next steps are discussed.

Abstract Background Cue exposure for extinguishing conditioned urges to smoking cues has been promising in the laboratory, but difficult to implement in natural environments. The recent availability of augmented reality (AR) via smartphone provides an opportunity to overcome this limitation. Testing the ability of AR to elicit cue-provoked urges to smoke (i.e., cue reactivity [CR]) is the first step to systemically testing the efficacy of AR for cue exposure therapy. Objectives To test CR to smoking-related AR cues compared to neutral AR cues, and compared to in vivo cues. Methods A 2 x 2 within-subject design comparing cue content (smoking vs. neutral) and presentation modality (AR vs. in vivo) on urge response. Seventeen smokers viewed six smoking-related and six neutral cues via AR smartphone app and also six smoking and six neutral in vivo cues. Participants rated their urge to smoke and reality/co-existence of the cue. Results Average urge to smoke was higher following smoking-related AR images (Median=7.50) than neutral images (Median=3.33) (Z=−3.44; P=.001; d=1.37). Similarly, average urge ratings for in vivo smoking-related cues (Median=8.12) were higher than for neutral cues (Median=2.12) (Z=-3.44; P=.001; d=1.64). Also, greater CR was observed for in vivo cues than to AR cues (Z=-2.67, P=.008; d=.36). AR cues were generally perceived as being realistic and well-integrated. Conclusions CR was demonstrated with very large effect sizes in response to AR smoking cues, although slightly smaller than with in vivo smoking cues. This satisfies the first criterion for the potential use of AR for exposure therapy.

Abstract - Augmented Reality is a merger between two worlds, namely the virtual world to the real world, in other words, we can display objects in the virtual world into the real world. Augmented Reality has many opportunities to continue to be developed in any field. The Augmented Reality method also has the advantage of an interactive side because the makers to display certain videos that are directed to the webcam. Making an interactive learning media application using augmented reality technology will be applied to Android-based smartphones and is designed as a learning medium for cadets and prospective cadets of ATKP Medan to the general public. In this application, there are 3D objects in the shape of the plane and its parts created using the 3Dsmax and Blender applications, with Unity as the game engine and Vuforia as the library. The way to use it is by pointing the smartphone camera at the markers that have been provided. Then on the smartphone screen, an object will appear 3D aircraft and the inside. The making of this application will help increase the understanding and participation of the general public as well as the Medan ATKP cadets in learning to recognize the shapes and parts of the aircraft. The results of testing the introduction of an aircraft application can run on a variety of Android mobile devices. The normal distance that can be detected by the camera is 6cm to 4m with a marker size of 20 x 22cm. The slope that can be detected normally between 20 ͦ - 90 ͦ. Based on the percentage of markers that are blocked can run between 0-87%. Based on the results of the questionnaire, the material contained in the aircraft form and part recognition application using Android-based Augmented Reality is suitable for introducing aircraft shapes and parts to field ATKP cadets to the general public. There are still many shortcomings that can be developed, such as increasing 3D plane objects and making better animations, so that applications are more interesting, interactive, and easy to understand.Keywords - Augmented Reality, Android, Unity, Vuforia, 3D, Blender  Abstract - Augmented Reality merupakan penggabungan antara dua dunia, yaitu dunia maya ke dunia nyata, dalam kata lain benda dalam dunia maya dapat kita tampilkan ke dunia nyata.
