Alteration of a virtual reality simulation

Last updated:

Abstract:

Provided is a method, computer program product, and virtual reality (VR) system for altering a VR simulation based on the physical capabilities of a user. A processor may receive one or more personal health factors corresponding to a user. The processor may prepare a VR simulation for a rendering. The processor may identify one or more physical characteristics of the user from the personal health factors. The processor may determine if the one or more physical characteristics affect the interaction of the user within the VR simulation. The processor may modify, in response to determining the one or more physical characteristic affect the interaction of the user within the VR simulation, user input options for interacting with the VR simulation. The processor may modify the rendering of the VR simulation in a display of a VR device based on the modified user input options.
