Testing AR glasses to help standardize breathing tests
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether augmented reality glasses can help make spirometry (a test that measures how well your lungs work) more consistent. If you are an adult with or without lung risk factors like smoking or biomass fuel exposure, this study may be for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old for the first phase, or at least 40 years old for the second phase.
- For the second phase, you need a history of heavy smoking (10 pack-years or more) or exposure to biomass fuels (like wood or charcoal smoke) for 10 years or more.
- You must be able to sign a consent form indicating you understand the study.
- You cannot have any reason that makes it unsafe to do a breathing test (like recent chest or eye surgery).
- You cannot be pregnant right now.
- You must have good enough vision and hearing to use augmented reality glasses.

This trial tests a smart home breathing guidance system for people with stable COPD. It aims to help improve your ability to exercise and be active using a remote coaching program you can follow at home.
This trial tests whether adding virtual reality (VR) to your regular pulmonary rehabilitation can help improve your muscle function, exercise tolerance, and shortness of breath. You would experience both standard rehab and rehab with VR, in a random order, to see which works better for you.
This trial tests if using augmented reality can help people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea use their CPAP machine more effectively. The goal is to make treatment easier and improve your sleep.
This trial looks at how long-term health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure might affect breathing problems. The goal is to better understand and help people with both issues.
This trial tests a portable “positive pressure” breathing device in people with severe COPD to see how well it works and whether it’s safe. It may help if you have trouble breathing and meet the device and health requirements.
This study tests a new device that listens to your breathing to check lung health. It is for healthy people and those with asthma, COPD, CF, or other airway diseases.
