Heroes Hall, OC Fair & Event Center’s veterans museum and education center, will debut a new exhibit during the 2018 OC Fair.
Bravemind is a virtual reality experience created by USC’s Institute for Creative Technologies to enhance established therapeutic techniques to treat post-traumatic stress.
The immersive tool is also used for resilience training for soldiers before they are deployed.
At Heroes Hall, the exhibit will include a VR segment for visitors to see firsthand how the technology works, as well as several videos and informational displays about the tool and those it has helped.
During the OC Fair, guests will be able to use specialty goggles to view a two-and-a-half-minute virtual reality segment on the first floor of Heroes Hall. Guests will enter the virtual world of war, and see the type of scenes typically used to help veterans.
Guests can get a preview of the new exhibit from June 28 through July 1.
