Gear VR reunites Romanian burn victim with his family

Romania’s recent Colectiv incident has sparked a big feeling of international solidarity after a fire in a night club killed over 60 people and injured many more. Catalin Gradinariu is one of the victims of the incident currently being treated at the Martini Hospital in Groningen. Yellow Bird and the Burns Unit of the Martini Hospital decided to reunite the man and his fiance with his family during the Christmas holidays thanks to Samsung’s latest virtual reality headset.

In order to reunite Catalin with his family, Yellow Bird set up a virtual reality scene at Gradinariu’s favorite restaurant in Bucharest and invited his family so that they could have a family dinner together after all this time. The purpose isn’t just to reunite Catalin with his family but also aid him in his condition as the virtual reality session is quite therapeutic and helps patients feel better, plus they require less pain medication this way.

Catalin’s family was delighted to see him after all this time and it goes to show that virtual reality has a special place in our lives. The internet has long been used to bring people closer but Samsung’s Gear VR will bring a whole new era of interaction.
