Abstract

Currently a considerable amount of time and resources are spent helping parents overcome issues related to feeding young infants. Designing interactive virtual feeding scenarios is a preventative means to reduce the adaptation process time for newly made parents, but also help new parents improve their approach to feeding their children. In this paper, we present a case study on using and assessing a virtual reality infant feeding application. Our results show that virtual training can increase the efficiency of feeding depending on the different behaviour of the child.
