Virtual streets teach real safety: VR training aims to protect kids from traffic

NCT ID NCT03960047

Summary

This study tested whether a virtual reality (VR) training program could teach 7-8 year old children safer street-crossing skills. Researchers compared the VR training to traditional street-side training and a group that received no training. The goal was to find the most effective and cost-efficient way to prevent pedestrian injuries in children.
