  ABSTRACT: Green landscapes in colleges and universities have important effects on the physiological and psychological indicators of college students. Based on virtual reality technology and environmental emotion perception measurement technology, the article constructs three biodiversity virtual reality landscape green areas and measures the changes of physiological indexes (brain waves) and psychological indexes (anxiety level) during 68 subjects’ experience of virtual reality scenes to investigate the effects of different biodiversity green areas landscape on human physiological and psychological indexes. The results showed that: The biodiversity of the green space landscape had significant effects on physiological and psychological recovery, in which the high biodiversity environment had better recovery effects than the low biodiversity; however, students were more focused in the low biodiversity environment; the effects of the virtual green space landscape on physiological and psychological were consistent with the real environment.
