Designing Together: Co-Designing a VR Therapy - Indira Knight

Designing Together: Co-Designing a VR Therapy - Indira Knight Accessibility NYC Meetup - Mar 3 2020 - Adobe NYC

TRANSCRIPT

TOPIC
gameChange is a virtual reality therapy for people with psychosis to help them feel more confident in everyday situations. It is a three-year project currently in its second year. The therapy was co-designed with people with lived experience of psychosis. In this talk, I will share some of the experiences of the design process and show how a mutual understanding between people with different disciplines and experiences can create a highly usable and engaging VR therapy.
