Use Case

Creote Studio developed the Housing Society MR Tour Experience as an immersive public education project. The experience allows users to enter realistic living environments and view the space through the lens of elderly people with cognitive impairment.

Mixed reality objects and guided interactions are placed within the physical environment to highlight potential difficulties, such as wayfinding confusion, misinterpretation of objects, environmental overstimulation, and safety risks at home.
