Freeze is an Augmented Reality prototype for the Magic Leap One, designed to discuss and promote healthy and informed decision making regarding alcohol consumption. The players assumes the role of a high school student with control over time, who uses their powers to protect themself and their peers from a variety of dangerous situations within the context of a party.

Prototype which originated from a PreviewLabs-led brainstorm session aiming to come up with ideas to educate about distracted driving. The prototype was developed in four iterations and lets the player discover how their ability to navigate a spaceship is impaired by various distractions.

In this prototype, the player smashes rocks in VR to obtain gemstones, and then needs to sort them by shape and color. After playing for a while, some distractions are introduced: pressing a sequence of buttons, and chasing away a ghost. The prototype was one of three concepts originating from a PreviewLabs-led brainstorm session, aiming to come up with ideas to educate people about the dangers of distracted driving.

In Pain Buddy, children with chronic pain are incentivized to complete a standardized assessment to allow following up on their pain levels and making timely adjustments in their care. We achieved this by making the assessments playful, and rewarding the kids with points which they can use to customize their avatar as well as to play various minigames we designed. Work included six iterations as well as support work in the years afterwards as our client used the prototype to study a large amount of kids in a hospital setting.

Two iterations for a Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy (VRET) prototype for HTC Vive and Google Cardboard in which an elevator scenario and in-car traffic scenario was created. The scenarios were highly customizable to allow matching the various aspects that could trigger anxiety in test subjects suffering from claustrophobia and panic disorder.

A minimum viable product (MVP) for a gamified smoking cessation app, helping people through the first weeks of being smoke-free after deciding to quit smoking. It was released on the iOS App Store and on Google Play for the purpose of a randomized controlled trial. Our work included a brainstorm session in which we came up with various ways to improve upon an earlier version of the app developed by our client.

Technical prototype in which we developed a solution to allow creating 360 degree animated content by combining a 360 degree image with a video cropped from a 360 degree video. This technical solution was used by our client in a project for Brussels Airlines in which they showcased various features of the in-flight experience.
