2. Program Delivery and Improvement. We delivered our numadelic group VR digital therapeutics programs and demos to dozens of people around the world. The delivery of these facilitated group experiences took place either in a co-located environment where each participant was in the same room or in a remote setup where participants joined from wherever in the world they may be. Our expert facilitators guided participants through these experiences promoting a sense of connection to the self others and the something greater than the self. Providing these experiences helped educate the public about the benefits of digital therapeutic VR and also potentially provided direct benefits to those experiencing the programs. We also worked to improve the experiences based on research and user feedback. We delivered experiences focused on reducing death anxiety and reducing anxiety overall while promoting feelings of connectedness.
