Hi, slightly strange question but some advice would be appreciated.
I am a medical researcher and have been approached about a very rare case/condition that is basically like being permanently severely sea sick. Essentially messed up brain systems for visuo-spatial awareness. Symptoms can be minimal when under passive motion like in a car or on train but this individual cannot drive. There is no known treatment but lots of cross over research and theory suggests that immersive graded exposure to virtual passive motion could form the basis of a treatment, effect would be modulated by the realism of the experience.
So the question is what set-up equipment (within a vaguely reasonable price range) would provide the most immersive train, truck, car (not race), flight simulation experience, It needs not to be too hard to play as there is cognitive processing difficulties (imagine having to play with the severe motion sickness or epic hangover perhaps. I know the new gen of VR has just been brought by facebook (much to gamers like me disgust) but I need something practical and available now.
How are the older VR goggles, are they compatible with any good sim games, has to mimic reality not fantasy. Might just be decent big screen, headset and really good graphics, maybe 3 screen set up, I really don't know. An idea of cost with suggestions would be useful.
Any and all advice very welcome
