When a VR user suffered an epileptic seizure in a VR chat, users initially interpreted the person's seizure as a joke and reacted accordingly.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Using virtual reality online in a chat with full-body tracking gear, which captures the movements of the entire body, allows users to communicate with each other almost as if they were real. However, a recent event shows the distress that could arise during medical emergencies. A user of the virtual reality chat app VRChat reportedly suffered an epileptic seizure while in the programme's virtual world, according to a YouTube video released for publication by the person concerned, incidentally. The user is said to have used full-body tracking gear, which is why other users were able to watch him fall to the ground twitching.<\/p>\n

Situation was not taken seriously at first<\/h3>\n

Zu Beginn schienen die Nutzer den Anfall des Betroffenen als Scherz zu interpretieren und dementsprechend zu reagieren. Einige begannen groteskerweise, eine „Sterbe“-Animation \u00fcber seinen K\u00f6rper abzuspielen und zu tanzen. Sobald aber klar wurde, dass es sich um einen ernsten Fall handelt \u2013 wohl auch, weil h\u00f6rbar war, dass der Nutzer um Luft rang \u2013 nahmen die meisten die Situation ernst. Hilfreiche Tipps Jene Nutzer, die Avatare mit blinkenden oder grellen Lichtern hatten, wurden gebeten, beiseite zu treten. Viele dr\u00fcckten ihre Unmut aus, da niemand vor Ort war und es unm\u00f6glich erschien, dem Betroffenen direkt zu helfen. Als ein Nutzer mit dem Avatar eines korpulenten, \u00e4lteren Mannes in Unterw\u00e4sche sich wiederholt auf den Avatar des Leidenden setzte, wurde er dazu aufgefordert, damit aufzuh\u00f6ren. Sobald der Betroffene wieder bei Bewusstsein war und in den Chat sprach, dass es ihm gut ginge, rieten ihm die anderen Nutzer, Wasser zu trinken, das Headset abzulegen und jemanden anzurufen, der ihm helfen k\u00f6nnte. Mehr konnten sie ja nicht machen.<\/p>\n

User does not actually suffer from photosensitivity<\/h3>\n

Photosensitive epilepsy describes a sensitivity to regularly changing light-dark contrasts. Thus, television, video games and the use of virtual reality can cause an epileptic seizure in those affected. The affected user later told Kotaku in an interview that he does not actually suffer from epilepsy, which could explain the lack of safety precautions in his case.<\/p>\n
