How Pediatric Hospitals Leverage XR Tech and How Developers Can Help

Description

Going to the hospital as a kid is never fun, however, pediatric facilities such as Children's Hospital Colorado are utilizing XR tech such as Augmented and Virtual Reality to change the pediatric hospital experience for the better. From distraction, pain management and Physical Therapy, to reducing the need for anesthesia; the use cases for immersive technology in pediatrics continue to grow every day. However, in order to continue this exciting evolution in patient care, healthcare institutions and developers must work together to make considerations and content that caters to the specific needs of children in the hospital, while also remaining engaging and fun!
