How to guarantee optimal hygiene in Virtual Reality?

Virtual Reality headsets are fitted directly on the upper part of the face. This contact, especially when it is prolonged and frequent, affects both the cleanliness of the helmet and the safety and well-being of the people who use it. This is especially true when the same helmet is used by several people in a row. The longer your sessions, the more users change, and greater will be the risks associated with hygiene. This is why it is necessary to equip yourself with the appropriate accessories so that your helmet looks like new before each use! The VR360 team gives you the keys to maintain impeccable hygiene on your equipment.

Accessories to protect from dirt

Certain accessories such as hygienic protections or foam can add to the appearance of the helmet and offer effective protection against all types of soiling. Often designed to be ergonomic and not interfere with wearing a helmet, this type of accessory is placed between the area of the face that surrounds the eyes and the foam or insert of the headset.

These precautions are particularly useful when having your helmet tested by loved ones or at a professional event. A user has left traces of her makeup? another sweated in a hectic session and one left hair and fingerprints? If your helmet is fitted with adequate protection or foam, it may have prevented dirt by absorbing it. You just have to change or clean it so that the helmet can be fitted again.

Hygienic protections

When it comes to hygiene of the face or the scalp, how not to approach the charlotte, equipped when wearing a helmet or any headgear. In addition to this effective and well-known protection against lice, hair and perspiration, other accessories allow more targeted protection dedicated to Virtual Reality. The hygienic protections or masks are made of light materials such as paper or special fabric. Their properties are absorbent and depending on their composition they can be either disposable or reusable. Especially since these materials have been designed so that contact with the skin is most comfortable. The protections are generally practical and simple to install by means of a head elastic band or an adhesive strip. It is recommended to bring it in batches (20, 50, 100, etc.), especially for event projects.

Headset inserts and foam

The foam that is placed on the inserts of Virtual Reality headsets plays a key role in their ergonomics. But in addition to the comfort they bring to the user, they also make it easier to keep the helmet clean. In the same way as hygienic protections, they play a protective role on the main area of ​​contact between the face and the helmet, with the difference that they are more durable. Their 2-in-1 composition includes:

• A foam interior designed for comfort

• Either a fabric or velvet exterior, simply machine washable.

• Or an exterior in imitation leather or PU leather, easily cleanable.

Depending on their cut and padding, the foams can adapt to different body types and types of users, such as those who wear glasses. For optimal cleanliness, change foams from one session to another while remembering to clean them after each use.

Clean VR equipment with precision 

Because protection alone is not enough to maintain hygiene, it is important to also focus on maintenance. To do this, it is possible to use accessories intended for cleaning the equipment. We can identify two main categories:

• Cleaning products with antiseptic qualities.

• Utensils, which allow precise and thorough cleaning.

These products have been designed to keep equipment clean quickly and easily. The goal is that the Virtual Reality equipment (headphones, controllers, 360 ° camera, etc.) can be operational from one use to another, and that the user experience lived by the user remains optimal. The VR360 shop offers kits that bring together some of these accessories, so that their effects are complementary and the cleaning carried out is complete.
