LenovoT breakthrough in Virtual Reality gives hope to Indians suffering from mild to moderate pain

Lenovo technology breakthroughs in Virtual reality in managing pain for hospitalized children. Medical consultants are using the Lenovo Mirage™ Solo VR headset.  The headset is used as a procedural tool for young patients who go through serious illness. This technique is basically used to help young patients to reduce anxiety during mild to moderately painful procedures.

Moreover, Indian respondents rank health care second in the global challenges most likely to be solved by technology (after education).

He further added that the application of virtual reality to areas like pain management is one of many examples of Lenovo’s commitment to creating smarter technology that transforms society.
