This article will provide a framework for producing immersive 360-degree videos for pediatric and adult patients in hospitals. This information may be useful to hospitals across the globe who may wish to produce similar videos for their patients. Advancements in immersive 360-degree technologies have allowed us to produce our own "virtual experience" where our children can prepare for anesthesia by "experiencing" all the sights and sounds of receiving and recovering from an anesthetic. We have shown that health care professionals, children, and their parents find this form of preparation valid, acceptable and fun. Perhaps more importantly, children and parents have self-reported that undertaking our virtual experience has led to a reduction in their anxiety when they go to the operating room. We provide definitions, and technical aspects to assist other health care professionals in the development of low-cost 360-degree videos.

Recall impairment in a different environmental context from learning is called context-dependent forgetting. Two learning methods have been proposed to prevent context-dependent forgetting: reinstatement and decontextualization. Reinstatement matches the environmental context between learning and retrieval, whereas decontextualization involves repeated learning in various environmental contexts and eliminates the context dependency of memory.

Article Synopsis
- This work presents a low-cost all-metal metamaterial near-field lens created using laser cutting technology, featuring a spiral-slot structure for miniaturized unit cells capable of a 360-degree phase shift.
- Constructed entirely from stainless steel, the lens is more durable under high temperatures and pressures, and its design includes a four-layer structure to enhance transmission performance.
- The lens, made up of 20 × 20 units, demonstrates effective focus at low frequencies (1.52 GHz to 1.68 GHz), with experimental results matching simulations, making it a practical solution for producing large metal components inexpensively.

School of Mechano-Electronic Engineering, Xidian University, Xi'an 710071, China.
A low-cost and power-efficient video surveillance system, named XDMOM, is developed for real-time moving object detection outdoors or in the wild. The novel system comprises four parts: imaging subsystem, video processing unit, power supply, and alarm device. The imaging subsystem, which consists of a dual-spectrum camera and rotary platform, can realize 360-degree and all-day monitoring.

Background: Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for panic disorder with agoraphobia (PDA). However, implementation of some of the procedures involved, particularly in vivo exposure, can be time consuming and taxing for routine health care services. CBT with exposure taking place in virtual reality (VR-CBT) is a more time-efficient option and has shown promising results in the treatment of PDA.
