Summary

This study looks at how young adults (ages 18-28) and healthy older adults (ages 65-75) perform a simple reaching task in virtual reality. Participants wear a VR headset and move a controller to hit targets of different sizes, sometimes with extra visual feedback. The goal is to understand how age and feedback affect movement speed and accuracy, which could help design better VR programs for older adults.
