Supports mental health and well-being

HTC says the new HTC VIVE Flow will help provide more efficacious ways to focus, relax, and escape. There will be games and other immersive activities to assist with meditation and relaxing. Virtual walks through nature and intriguing destinations, for example, offer opportunities to reset. According to HTC, the device can even help you sleep better by allowing you to wind down more easily.

Offers Vibe Sync virtual workspaces

Using a feature called Vibe Sync, you’ll be able to enter virtual lo-fi workspaces, which are distraction-free environments where you can work more productively or simply relax. This is a pretty cool feature for those who can’t find an effective place to focus or get a few minutes of alone time. Goodbye, noisy neighbors, I’m going to my private beach office for the day!
