We help healthcare institutions deliver more comfort, distraction in moments of pain and better quality of life, with the safety of a medical device registered in EUDAMED and with INFARMED (Portugal).
Trusted by leading healthcare institutions
In healthcare institutions, there are critical moments where technology can make a difference, and where the absence of alternatives has real costs.
Invasive procedures, chemotherapy, painful treatments: patients arrive afraid. Medication has limits. Clinical teams need non-pharmacological alternatives backed by evidence.
Rehabilitation is long, repetitive and demotivating. Many patients abandon the programme before achieving the goals set by the team, compromising clinical outcomes.
Terminal patients have few alternatives for distraction, comfort and meaningful experiences. The team wants to do more, but resources are limited.
Applications across several areas of healthcare: from pain management to palliative care. We collect the published research on each of them.
One of the most researched areas for virtual reality in clinical settings.
Support for team-led exercise: guided movement, with repetitions counted automatically and every session logged.
Calm immersive environments, used as a non-pharmacological complement in anxiety and stress contexts.
Interactive scenarios used in cognitive stimulation activities with patients of all ages.
Comfort and distraction through immersive experiences (nature, travel, memories) for patients in end-of-life care.
Safe, controllable environments, used as non-pharmacological support under the healthcare team's supervision.
The same platform, read from where it is going to work.
No technical complexity. Our team handles everything: it arrives configured, training included.
We deliver the headset with the application installed and the scenario library loaded. Your team needs no technical knowledge.
Intuitive interface to select scenarios according to each patient's moment. Full control in seconds.
Immersive session with 8K+ video and spatial audio. Session logging and a regularly updated library.
One person runs the fleet from the browser. The family video call and lying-down mode are what that session allows.
Nothing to install. The clinician opens a page on a PC or tablet on the same Wi-Fi and drives the headsets in real time. Each headset is an entry on screen, and one person is enough to run the whole fleet.
All on the local network: no cloud, no install. GDPR-compliant.
One of the most requested features by our users. The patient makes a video call with their family while experiencing virtual reality.
Through the headset, the family's face and voice are present in real time. The emotional connection is maintained even inside the immersive experience.
On their phone or computer, the family follows the same 360° scenarios. They can comment, react and share the moment.
The family can be at home, in another city or another country. All they need is a phone or computer with a camera.
"My mother cried with joy when she saw the sea for the first time in years, and I was there with her." Family member testimonial
Many patients cannot sit up. Lying-down mode aligns the horizon with the tilt of the head, so the scenario looks upright instead of skewed. It works with every 360° scenario, with no special content.
Beyond recentring the scenario on the patient's direction, RVer aligns the horizon with the tilt of the head. At 30° in a reclined chair or 90° in bed, the image always looks level.
A misaligned horizon is one of the main causes of discomfort in virtual reality. Aligning it with the patient keeps the session comfortable from start to finish.
No need to film lying-down versions. The same 360° scenario serves 0°, 30°, 45° or 90°, without duplicating a single video. It is the catalogue that adapts to the patient's position.
Dentist chair, dialysis, post-op, bed-bound, any reclined position, with no special content. Where it makes the difference
We collect published research on virtual reality in healthcare settings. Most of it comes from independent teams; our own team also publishes, and those texts are marked as such.
Most are by independent, peer-reviewed authors; the texts marked as RVer Study are written by our team. None of them is a performance claim for the product, nor a substitute for clinical assessment. The Class I medical device registration (EUDAMED and INFARMED) covers the base product.
See the study library (opens in a new window)Most "VR therapy" solutions on the market are entertainment or wellness apps: without clinical regulation, safety assessment, or legal accountability. RVer is different.
Usable in NHS and private hospitals, clinics and health centres across Portugal, under team supervision.
Complies with technical documentation, risk assessment and European standards (MDR 2017/745).
No personal or clinical patient data leaves the headset. Only per-device usage statistics, identifying no one, to improve the app (GDPR).
Medical device registration in Portugal under MDR 2017/745, with the manufacturer established in the European Union (SRN PT-MF-000059840). The base product bears the CE mark under MDR 2017/745.
High-definition 360° video with spatial audio. Library regularly updated with new environments selected with healthcare professionals.
All scenarios are selected with the support of healthcare professionals, for patient comfort and wellbeing.
A proprietary model, with legible weights, running on the device itself. The team says which area it is working on and RVer AI ranks that device’s library. The rule for each area is written from published literature, independent studies and RVer’s own, and every suggestion shows its evidence statement and its grade. Including when it is weak.
It learns from how that department uses it: what the team picks, what it lets run to the end, what it cuts short. At most ±15% on the ranking, and never over the safety filters. What one department learns stays in that department. Nothing is pooled across clients, nothing trains anything central. No cloud, no account (GDPR).
It does not diagnose, prescribe or assess. It ranks content against a goal the clinician chose, and no number is a cut-off or a norm. How it decides, in detail
They complement the base product and are enabled per device. Each has its own page, with the full detail.
Guided movement patients will actually want to do.
A 3D coach demonstrates each exercise and the patient copies along, seated. The app counts the repetitions and records the movement: range, smoothness and per-session performance.
See RVer MotionCognitive activities that do not feel like exercises.
Seven cognitive activities in a virtual room, with no worksheets and no stopwatch. The session log is raw counts and times, with no grading and no thresholds.
See RVer NeuroGraded exposure, at the clinician's pace.
360° environments organised into levels, from the easiest to the hardest. The clinician picks the level and sets the pace: the patient never advances on their own.
See RVer ExposureRVer Motion, RVer Neuro and RVer Exposure are modules in development, not covered by the Class I medical device registration (EUDAMED and INFARMED), which covers the base product.
Flexible model designed for healthcare institutions of any size: from a single clinic to a university hospital.
