About
Openmind 360 has developed an interactive virtual-reality (VR) platform that deals with teenagers' mental distress problems.
The company's platform enables an interactive viewing of a 360-degree VR film in which the viewer influences the development of the plot with active selections throughout the film. The films present familiar social situations (e.g. a conflict between friends leading to a rumor spread via social media), with central points of dilemmas where the viewer must choose how to continue by focusing their gaze, thereby affecting the development of the plot. In this way, the participants' experience of identification is further enhanced by active choices and solutions to situations.
With virtual reality, people who are socially isolated can immerse themselves in social situations and share these situations with their family members, all connected centrally by Openmind 360's solution.
