The successful free game Sea Hero Quest is used to research dementia. It has been downloaded millions of times. Now there is a VR version that collects even more precise data.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

There are perhaps more exciting games than Sea Hero Quest<\/a>. Nevertheless, Deutsche Telekom's free adventure game for Android and Apple devices has become a hit. More than three million people have steered a small boat for a good year, using only icebergs and bays for orientation. Neither GPS nor compass assisted the players in their search for treasure through diverse areas such as an ice-covered polar landscape. They have to memorise a map and then off they go.<\/p>\n

Data from game for dementia research<\/h3>\n

With the game, the app navigator trains his memory and the scientists collect anonymised data on the spatial orientation of people of all ages. After each level of the game is reached, the player can answer questions about himself, especially about his fitness, but he does not have to. The findings have been incorporated into the most comprehensive study on dementia research.<\/p>\n

Even more precise measurements thanks to VR<\/h3>\n

\u201eDas mobile Spiele Sea Hero Quest hat uns eine bisher nicht dagewesene Menge an Daten geliefert, durch die wir die F\u00e4higkeit zu r\u00e4umlichen Orientierung im Bev\u00f6lkerungsquerschnitt messen konnten“, sagt Dr. Hugo Spiers vom University College London. Der Neurowissenschaftler geh\u00f6rt gemeinsam mit Kollegen des University College London und der University of East Anglia sowie der gemeinn\u00fctzigen Organisation Alzheimer\u00b4s Research UK zu den Theoretikern hinter der Spiele-App.<\/p>\n

With the Sea Hero Quest variant for Virtual Reality, even the smallest body movements of the players are now registered. Movements are recorded ten times per second as the player moves through different virtual environments. Movements on all three axes of a head position can be recorded. According to Telekom, two minutes of gameplay correspond to around five hours of conventional clinical research.<\/p>\n

From now on, owners of a Samsung Gear VR can download the game for free in the Oculus Store.<\/p>\n
