VRelief is an innovative VR headset designed to address motion sickness and visual fatigue, two major barriers to prolonged VR use. Equipped with AI-driven sensors—including EEG, pulse oximeter, eye-tracking, and skin temperature monitors—it detects early signs of discomfort in real time. Upon detection, a cooling system targets acupuncture points around the eyes, providing immediate relief. By enhancing user comfort and extending VR session durations, VRelief is set to transform applications in gaming, training, and professional sectors.
