Assistive Tech: As Easy as 1, 2, 3!
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays from the LowCostAT team! 🎄 Wishing you a safe and restful break.
Maintain the highest standards of hygiene and comfort with the Meta Quest 3 Silicone Facial Interface. This medical-grade, wipe-clean accessory is a vital piece of assistive technology maintenance, replacing the standard absorbent cloth foam. It is essential for participants with skin sensitivities, those engaging in active physical rehabilitation, or multi-user therapy settings.
Standard foam interfaces absorb sweat and can be abrasive. This silicone upgrade addresses specific barriers:
Promoting Hygiene & Skin Health: For participants who use VR for active rehabilitation (exergaming), sweat build-up in standard foam can lead to bacteria and skin irritation. This silicone surface is non-porous and can be wiped clean instantly with an antibacterial wipe, preventing breakouts and maintaining skin integrity.
Supporting Sensory Processing (Tactile): Many neurodivergent individuals find the texture of the standard scratchy foam distracting or distressing. The soft, cool silicone offers a smooth, hypoallergenic tactile experience that is often better tolerated by those with sensory sensitivities.
Enhancing Focus (Visual): The interface includes a nose light-blocker that prevents external light from leaking into the headset. This increases immersion, helping participants with ADHD or distractibility stay focused on the therapeutic content without visual interference from the real world.
Facilitating Multi-User Safety: In group therapy or respite settings, sharing a headset with a sponge-like foam pad is a hygiene risk. This interface allows the device to be sanitized between users quickly and effectively.
Wipe-Clean Convenience: Simply wipe down with a damp cloth or sanitizing wipe after use. No need to remove and wash, making it easy for participants to maintain their own equipment independently.
Soft & Hypoallergenic: Made from high-quality medical-grade silicone that is gentle on the skin, reducing pressure marks and irritation during extended therapy sessions.
Secure & Stable Fit: Precision-moulded to snap securely into the Meta Quest 3, ensuring it doesn't slip during active movement or physical therapy exercises.
Light-Blocking Nose Guard: Integrated flexible nose flaps block out ambient light, improving contrast and immersion for a better visual experience.
Durable & Long-Lasting: Unlike foam which degrades over time, silicone is durable and resistant to wear, protecting your investment.
