As people age, they can become isolated. What Daytrippa will do is bring experiences to the aged via Virtual Reality. These experiences can be things such as watching horses being washed through to seeing family events in VR. Daytrippa also has a special focus on people with Dementia, we can take Dementia patients to places that they long to be but cannot get to. These places are often experiences from the past, they range from working on farms, sitting in boardrooms or people watching at the shops! Nothing fancy, just experiences that formed a part of their lives in the past. In 2018, Daytrippa was a top 40 finalist in the Bluechilli / Coca-Cola Amatil Xcelerate Startup Bootcamp., Unfortunately, we did not finish top 12 but learned many things in our time with Bluechilli. 2019 will see us renew this project with renewed vigor, technology such as Oculus Go headsets are making quality VR experiences so much more accessible. Daytrippa wants to make a difference to peoples lives. If you are interested in joining us, assisting with research or interested in what we are doing at Daytrippa please send a message through. Cheers, Ken.
