Some people have \"cybersickness\" after using VR. Cybersickness is similar to motion sickness. Symptoms include eye strain, nausea, dizziness, or headache. The symptoms are usually mild and go away after the person stops using VR. New software called Motion Reset is being designed to reduce symptoms of cybersickness during VR use.\n\nObjective:\n\nTo see if Motion Reset software can reduce cybersickness in people using VR.\n\nEligibility:\n\nHealthy adults aged 18 to 60 years.\n\nDesign:\n\nParticipants will have 1 clinic visit that will last about 1 hour. They will answer questions about how they are feeling. They will learn how to use the VR headset and the handheld game controllers.\n\nThe study will be broken into 2 parts. For the first part, participants will be assigned to 1 of 3 groups:\n\nGroup 1 will participate in a VR experience designed to prevent cybersickness. They will view screens and move around while they press buttons on a controller.\n\nGroup 2 will participate in a VR experience that is not designed to prevent cybersickness. They will view screens and move around while they press buttons on a controller.\n\nGroup 3 will have no VR experience.\n\nParticipants will complete 2 questionnaires about their experiences in the first part of the study.\n\nFor the second part, all participants will spend up to 20 minutes playing a commercial VR game called Jurassic World Aftermath. Every few minutes, they will be asked if they are experiencing discomfort.\n\nAfter playing the game, participants will complete 12 questionnaires about their experience....",[27,28],"Healthy Volunteers","Virtual Reality",[27,28,30],"cybersickness","RECRUITING","2026-08-20",{"date":34,"type":35},"2026-08-21","ACTUAL",{"date":37,"type":35},"2025-09-26",{"date":39,"type":21},"2027-02-01",{"name":41,"class":42},"National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI)","NIH",2,{"id":45,"slug":46,"hasResults":12,"nctId":47,"briefTitle":48,"officialTitle":49,"acronym":50,"eligibilityCriteria":51,"healthyVolunteers":52,"sex":16,"minAge":53,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":54,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":56,"briefSummary":57,"conditions":58,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":31,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":62,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":63,"startDateStruct":65,"completionDateStruct":67,"leadSponsor":69,"locationsCount":72},"100642586","using-virtual-reality-travel-to-reduce-loneliness-in-older-adults-100642586","NCT07644416","Using Virtual Reality Travel to Reduce Loneliness in Older Adults","Virtual Reality Travel (VRT) as a Loneliness Intervention for Older Adults: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial","VRT","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adults aged 65 years or older\n* Express willingness to engage with VR technology\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n\\- No self-reported physical, sensory, neurological, or cognitive conditions that would make VR use unsafe or impractical (e.g., uncontrolled seizures, severe vertigo, or significant uncorrected vision\u002Fhearing impairments).",true,"65 Years",{"count":55,"type":21},40,[24],"This study aims to investigate whether and how virtual reality travel (VRT) can reduce loneliness among older adults.
