Country Road VR is a virtual petting farm which allows users to walk through a realistic farm and "pet" various animals. While petting the animals, users will experience haptic feedback (controller vibration) and the corresponding animal sounds. The VR farm is designed to positively stimulate the mind of indivduals with dementia and other related diagnosis. Of course, we encourage anyone to simply enjoy this immersive experience!
Its a simple VR experience which helps reduce stress, agitation and fear. It promotes relaxation, sensory stimulation and even a little humor. Animals include horses, cows, chickens, goats, pigs, fox, kitten, zebras and a few other surprises. All animals may be pet for stimulation.
