Virtual reality has vast potential beyond the entertainment experience. It will serve as a wonderful opportunity for health care providers to assist their clients! I'm an occupational therapy student in NY and have co-written a paper on the potential for VR and app developers to help people in recovery from stoke. With the help of a friend who is studying to become a programmer, we intend to begin research and development of such VR applications upon graduation and completion of our OT certification. So far, google cardboard has been decent, but a more substantial platform would definitely be of great benefit moving forward. Should anyone at AC be interested in reading our paper, feel free to ask and we would be happy to send you a copy.
