VR in Childbirth Education

VR in Childbirth Education is an online VR experience about childbirth. The educational project is funded by A!Ole, aimed at offering Aalto teachers and alumni information on how to utilize VR content in their courses and annotating online VR content.

The material consists of videos captured with 360-camera in the Turku University Hospital labour ward with actors, interviews of two mothers about their child birth experience and informative voice narration. The project is compiled with Pano2VR software. The final result is an online VR experience that allows for user interactions. In the presentation, we’ll discuss the process and VR design in the context of childbirth education.
