Immersive experience at Delta 7: Virtual reality for the well-being of seniors
As part of the “Virtual reality for healthy aging” project carried out by the Klésia mutual insurance company, the Teleport IN deployed the EMOCHUTE within the Casa Delta 7 in the 18th arrondissement of Paris . The objective is to integrate virtual reality into the routine of care and activities for seniors, offering them moments of escape, relaxation, and cognitive stimulation, all in a framework that is both recreational and therapeutic.
A virtual trip for seniors
Since the introduction of virtual reality headsets, several residents have been able to discover this technology for the first time. The objective was to offer various experiences, whether virtual visits to emblematic places, relaxation exercises, or even cardiac coherence programs. These activities not only captivated users, but also made it possible to create moments of well-being and deep relaxation.
The participants' returns were extremely positive. They particularly appreciated the immersion that virtual reality allows with 360 ° videos. The latter transport them to places that they had never visited or which rekindle precious memories. The experience has been described as innovative and fascinating, offering a new way of traveling and reconnecting with the outside world, even from your chair!
Benefits beyond entertainment
The impact of using virtual reality headsets goes far beyond simple entertainment. Cardiac coherence programs, for example, have been particularly well received for their ability to help residents focus on their breathing, thereby reducing stress and providing a sense of calm. Others have found virtual tours a source of inspiration and happiness, with the desire to discover more and more new virtual destinations.
This approach, combining technological innovation and well-being, shows that virtual reality can be a powerful tool to enrich the daily lives of seniors, by offering them enriching and soothing experiences.
Towards a future rich in immersive experiences
The success of this first phase of integration of virtual reality at Delta 7 is promising for the future. The residents expressed their desire to reuse these helmets, with suggestions for future experiences, thus proving the interest of this technology in this context.
At Teleport in we are determined to continue the development of these innovative tools. We have the ambition to transform the experience of seniors by regularly offering them moments of escape and serenity. This project is part of a long -term vision where technology, far from being reserved for the youngest, becomes a real ally to improve the quality of life of the elderly.
Conclusion: An adventure to continue
The deployment of virtual reality at Delta 7 is part of an innovation approach serving the well-being of seniors. The enthusiastic feedback from participants encourages us to continue to explore and develop this technology to best meet their expectations. We look forward to sharing the next steps in this promising project.
