Currently VirTEA includes two scenarios, the visit to the dentist with which you can practice waiting and anticipate what you will find in a dental clinic, and visit the hairdresser, where you can also practice waiting and there will be many more noises. Soon the scene "waiting for the bus" will be included totally free where in addition to waiting and noise can be practiced in a more open environment.

Is virtual reality dangerous?
No. However, there are some recommendations for use to ensure that the experience is rewarding. It is advisable not to do sessions of more than 30 minutes to avoid eye fatigue and possible dizziness. In addition, in the case of children under 12 years it is highly recommended that the sessions are not very long since their optic nerves are still developing.
