Work Package 1: Sports Games

1. Running Game to encourage personal development - Testing & Training environment

These running maps developed with the Unreal game engine take the runner to a fantasy world, a forest run or a mountain conqueror! This game has been made for the Rodby treadmill, which brings goal-oriented running to the Santasport testing environment in addition to skiing. The game is easy to approach and offers levels for everyone. More information about this implementation will be coming soon – the development phase is in full swing and demos are being tested currently!

Work Package 2: Ergonomics of physical activity and well-being and the design of virtual experiences

1. Immersive VR Ice Plunge

The immersive VR Ice Plunge experience combines the health benefits of Amanda’s ice plunge shower with a virtual environment of the Finnish landscape. Cool water mist and realistic virtual elements, water, snow and wind, create a multimodal experience, offering a relaxing way to experience the Finnish ice plunge.

2. VR Yoga - A virtual reality yoga experience in Finnish nature

The VR yoga virtual experience combines an authentic Finnish natural environment with yoga exercises performed using motion capture technology. Participants can follow a series of movements guided by a Lapin Väki yoga instructor in a realistic summer lake landscape. The experience offers the opportunity to try yoga in a calming environment regardless of time and place, for example at home, at work or as a support for rehabilitation.
