Exploring an Application of Virtual Reality for Early Detection of Dementia

Facing the severe global dementia problem, an exploration was conducted adopting the technology of virtual reality (VR). This report lays a technical foundation for further research project “Early Detection of Dementia Using Testing Tools in VR Environment”, which illustrates the process of developing a VR application using Unity 3D software on Oculus Go. This preliminary exploration is composed of three steps, including 3D virtual scene construction, VR interaction design and monitoring. The exploration was recorded to provide basic technical guidance and detailed method for subsequent research.
