In 2022, I predicted that tools like VR would become essential for designers to visualize and deeply understand the experiences of people who navigate the world differently. Today, we’re seeing that prediction come to life with VR simulations like the one showcasing barriers in the built environment at a major traffic hub in Karlsruhe, Germany. This technology isn’t just about design; it’s about empathy and inclusion. By immersing non-disabled people in the challenges faced by disabled individuals, we can drive meaningful conversations and advocate for more accessible environments. It's exciting to see VR being used to promote reflection and joint action, expanding our understanding of equitable participation in society. The future of design is inclusive, and tools like this are leading the way. #InclusiveDesign #VR #Accessibility #Empathy #Innovation #StrategicForesight

Wait for the last richie's plank experience😂Exploring the world of VR can be exhilarating, but it's crucial to remember safety first! 🚀 As someone deeply engaged in VR development, I've seen firsthand the potential for amazing experiences, like Richie's Plank Experience. However, with great immersion comes great responsibility. It's essential to share lessons learned from VR fails to prevent accidents. From ensuring adequate space to securing cables, attention to detail is key. Incorporating safety protocols into VR experiences, like clear instructions and virtual boundaries, can enhance user enjoyment while mitigating risks. Let's champion a culture of VR safety to foster innovation responsibly. Together, we can elevate virtual reality experiences while prioritizing user well-being. Let's keep pushing boundaries, but always with safety in mind! #VR #SafetyFirst #RichiesPlankExperience #Innovation

🚀 Welcome to a new series of posts examining myths and biases about VR. Motion Sickness is probably the most popular fear associated with VR technology. 👀 Did you know? Not everyone experiences VR sickness, and for those who do, it often diminishes with continued use. Research (by Journal of the American Medical Association) shows that gradual exposure and user-customizable environments significantly reduce symptoms. 🛠️ Tips to Enjoy VR: 1. Start with short sessions and gradually increase your time in VR. 2. Customize your VR settings for comfort—adjust movement speed, field of view, and more. 3. Use visual anchors like a fixed point in your VR view to help orient yourself. 🌐 At Alterland, we understand that VR sickness can be a concern, but it's not a barrier! Our high-spec VR platforms are designed to minimize potential discomfort, every space is created with harmony and your well-being in mind. 🎮 Whether you’re meeting, learning, or collaborating, do it without the worry of VR sickness.

💡How Virtual Reality is Transforming Healthcare Facility Planning? At Delco Security, we’re excited to be at the forefront of integrating Virtual Reality (VR) into the planning process for healthcare facilities. VR offers a unique advantage by allowing clinical staff to interact within immersive environments for situational awareness and training - before a building is even constructed. With both first-person and third-person perspectives, coupled with the ability to network multiple users online, we create high-fidelity digital twins that are fully interactive. Our VR mock-ups offer real-time modifications, enabling clients to rapidly prototype their future environments. The result? Faster design and development times, reduced project costs, and a highly adaptable planning tool that ensures healthcare teams are prepared for the future. Questions?
