Heady Virtual Reality Helps Seniors Experience Another World

Heady-Virtual-Reality-grandparents-in-VR-696x392Brown says seniors love trying VR because it allows them to experience technology they may have previously viewed as mere science fiction. In using VR, they can experience locations, activities or events they’ve previously lived through, or immerse themselves in surreal fantasy worlds. Whatever they choose, it all brings a smile to Brown’s face.

Many seniors prefer less-complicated experiences, immersing in rides or scenes like the Apollo 11 simulation. Another woman, in her 70s, had a birthday party at Heady with two friends, who all had a blast riding a roller coaster simulator.

With around 125 titles, Heady has options to suit most any physical limitations someone might have.
