Key Points

  • This research aims to identify out-of-the-box virtual reality (VR) applications that are applicable to older adults.
  • Utilizing a consensus panel to identify VR applications suitable for geriatric use.
  • Assessing applicability of selected VR experiences for older adults.
  • Identified various VR applications with potential value for older adults.
  • Established initial guidelines for future testing of selected VR experiences in different settings.

Abstract

Out of the box VR experiences can have geriatric applicability and potential value for older adults. Identifying OOTB VR through a consensus panel is the first step to generalizing use in this population. Future research will include testing with older adults, across various settings and levels of physical and cognitive function.
