YEREVAN. – There is no lack of innovative and original ideas within the framework of the 17th measure being implemented by the Ministry of High-Tech Industry to neutralize COVID-19’s economic consequences in Armenia, the ministry informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.

The new generation of Armenian scientists presents many interesting programs.

Accordingly, 10X Engineering is one of the winners of the respective grant programs for established companies. Using VR technology, the company's engineering team has developed 3D glasses that enable the human visual and auditory senses to move to the virtual world, and this reduces pain and stress levels during medical examinations, or other stressful situations.

Similar devices already exist in the world, but the Armenian model is a few steps ahead of them, as the content developed by Armenian engineers takes into account also the distinctiveness—nationality, age, preferences, susceptibility to various phenomena, taste, and some other attributes—of each person.

The first tests of this product are scheduled in six months.
