VR designed for awe and rehab.

The experience combines virtual art, technology, and rehabilitation.

When we, in reality, are contained to our home, nursing home, or hospital room. We can in the virtual reality experience wonder in new, calming worlds.

A remarkable intersection between art, pain relief, and exercise.

some voices in betatesting:

wow! So beautiful and peaceful! I want to use this as a relaxing break in my computer work!

I love the small figures in the sea landscape and the growing flowers in the yoga session.

So beautiful music and peaceful surroundings! The voice of the psyiotherapist is so relaxing!

So nice to walk around, looking for growing flowers and make the waterdrops water the landscape.

I forgot my pain and that I am in a boring institution! thank you! so full of fantasy and awe!

Within the VR-headset, the player is surrounded by calming forests and oceanscapes, sounds of nature, and classical music.

The player can also perform yoga and physiotherapy exercises with a personal, virtual trainer.

By orienteering with a map in a 3D environment, the player can practice and develop their cognition.

The exercises and movements have been designed by professional yoga instructors and physiotherapists that work with rehabilitation.

MENU

In the game’s menu the player can choose

options for language, environment, exercises,

standing or sitting, and easy or more advanced difficulty. Easy difficulty excludes

movements above shoulder height.

EXPLORATION:

Yoga, Physiotherapy

The player can explore visual and calming

worlds at their own pace, either by sitting

or standing. By using the controller, the

player moves through ocean- and forest

environments, and makes their way to either

a yoga- or physio-therapy exercise with

different difficulty levels.

3D Orienteering

VR enables a unique opportunity to train 3D

orienteering via a map. This may develop the

coordination between mind and body, since

the player learns to navigate to different

targets.

Yoga och Physiotherapy

Through paintings, the player enters either

an oceanscape or a redwood forest. They are

then automatically transported to a previously chosen yoga- or physiotherapy session.

Rewards

Besides relaxation, exploration, and exercise,

the player is rewarded with for instance growing flowers and trees, northern lights, and

water drops. These rewards and the beautiful

environments and sounds can create awe and

motivate the player to return to the game and

the exercise.

Personal Trainer

The player exercises with other 3D-characters, which simulates a group session with a

virtual instructor.

Research

There are many scientific reports about the

advantages of VR. In virtual reality, the brain

is ”tricked” into believing that it is in a new

location. VR distracts from pain, and can

relieve stress and anxiety.

Technology

All characters in the game are created through

motion capture technology in co-operation

with the university of Lund’s Humlabb.

To play Virtual Rehab, you need:

● a VR headset with the associated

controller for Oculus rift or HTC Vive.

● a copy of the game which will be available on digital platforms such as Steam.

● a computer that meets the system

requirements for VR.
