Entertainment in the health industry has been the same for years, or maybe decades.
This situation does not contribute at all with patient recovery, especially for children who need to stay in hospitals for long periods of times.
This situation does not contribute at all with patient recovery, especially for children who need to stay in hospitals for long periods of times.
For these kids (and also for their loved ones), their overall experience is full of boredom, anxiety and stress.
They wish to leave but can't, instead they are stuck in a depressing environment with little to no joy.

So, in order to change this situation the project goal was to improve the kids well being through a holistic approach to healthcare, by providing a new offering of entertainment in which they could interact, relax, play and forget (at least for a few hours) that they were inside a hospital.
The service offering was a platform with VR content and cardboard glasses that could be assembled by the kids. Also, they would be invited to put a bit of their personalities on it, with the help of stickers, covered pencils and pens, or whatever they wanted in order to make the glasses their own.
With that scope, the project was focused on the kids well being, providing them with a more interactive option of entertainment, that would also be affordable and of easy access.
