N E W T E CH with V R {virtual reality}
KNOW ABOUT SIGHT
The application raises awareness of people who are suffering from eye disorders.
What do visually impaired people actually see? Discover virtually what the real world looks like for people with eye diseases. The use of VR app as measuring device for scientific research. The results of this research will be implemented into product development. The combination of eye-tracking and virtual reality technology a new benchmarks in the area of realistic simulations. In the future, it will literally open everybody’s eyes and make them aware of certain eye disorders. Implemented eye-tracking technology especially for this application, because it is able to trace the eye movements of people. This means, that the areas a human being focusses on while looking at something can be recorded. This technology tracks the gaze of the user in virtual reality. The VR headset in combination with eye-tracking technology recognizes what the user is looking at, and can adjust the images perceived by the user in real-time. The non-impaired user of the app can recreate that experience for themselves. To realistically depict an eye disease in this way has only been possible via VR in combination with eye-tracking technology. Augmented reality will be a wonderful tool, that advance not only the medical profession but other professions as well.
Primary mission is to spread empathy and awareness surrounding the daily reality of life with eye disorders.
