@Sara : Great perspective on role of VR and 3D in mindfulness.
I help aging adults combat social isolation, have fun, find joy, and build friendships via a member-driven social virtual reality community
6moAlthough I was not at GDC and could not catch the session, VR is transformative in health and wellness, Sam Cole. We use FitXR in our morning fitness classes at the nonprofit Thrive Pavilion, facilitating human connections and socialization for older adults isolated at home. Our activities are designed around the International Council on Active Aging's seven dimensions of wellness, and FitXR may be the only option for social fitness in VR at the moment. A plus for Thrive is that FitXR has some modified routines that can be done seated, which is essential for some of our members. I would love to expand what we're doing with FitXR at Thrive and bring it to more of our 1500 and growing members.
