Embodied Labs focuses on understanding the needs and struggles of elderly patients with health conditions, and how these challenges affect caregivers.\u0000 Unlike normal 360° videos, these interactive experiences aim to enhance empathy for the patient or give the user options for navigating the experience, depending on their interests. In addition, support materials allow faculty or health care managers to facilitate discussions about the\u0000 experiences. The cost is not trivial, and to get the most immersive experience, Embodied Labs content needs to be viewed through a wired VR headset connected to a computer workstation.","PeriodicalId":22397,"journal":{"name":"The Charleston Advisor","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85800760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
