1) Introduction
Thank you for piloting Starlight Xperience!
Starlight Xperience is a groundbreaking new
program from Starlight Children’s Foundation. With
your help, this program will transform the hospital
experience for kids by virtually transporting them out
of the hospital to anywhere in the world — or the
galaxy — they dream to go. Starlight Xperience
offers hospitalized kids a variety of fun, ageappropriate and fantastic virtual reality experiences
geared toward entertainment and distraction.
Starlight Xperience features a suite of state-of-the-art equipment, including a wireless VR headset
that is easy to transport, quick to wipe clean and does not require Internet access for daily use,
making it highly accessible and easy-to-use in the healthcare environment.
The Starlight Xperience program is currently being piloted by a small number of forward-thinking
hospitals. Thank you for helping us evaluate this program so that it can be used to improve the life
and health of kids and families around the world.
