How VR Works
Virtual reality headsets, such as the Meta Quest 2, are devices that create a virtual environment for the user. The headset has two lenses inside that show each eye images of a computer-generated world. As the user moves their head and body around, the world they see changes along with them, creating an immersive simulation.
Not just for games!
Virtual reality has been shown to be effective for treating mental health issues, education, providing pain management, and other types of health interventions. We hope to utilize this technology to create a program for teens that will help them build skills to stop or prevent them from vaping.
