We’ve been having lots of fun testing out our new virtual reality (VR) equipment at Fairway View! This technology comes from Rendever, a company that specializes in VR technology for senior living communities. The system offers an expansive library of VR experiences and learning features. When someone puts on a headset, they’re fully immersed in the experience. Meanwhile, everyone else can follow along on the large projector screen. This way, the entire group can share the adventure together.
