A Virtual Reality at Home Intervention for People Living With Dementia

Persons living with dementia (PLwD) will view 360-degree videos using a commercially-available Virtual Reality (VR) head mounted display that has built-in speakers. While wearing the VR headset, PLwD-participant will be able to visually explore the virtual environments by turning their head to face different directions. Care partner-participants will take part in the VR experience concurrently by viewing a tablet that is connected to the VR headset through the \"screen mirroring\" function.

PLwD and care partner will view 360-degree videos together on a commercially-available tablet that has built-in speakers. They will be able to visually explore the virtual environment using the touch screen (dragging the view around with their fingers).
