abstract = "Developed by Coherent Digital, Mindscape Commons provides a platform for VR content relating to the health sciences, counseling, psychology, and social work. Content is either commercial, Open Access, research based, or exclusively developed by Coherent Digital. The VR experiences are
available as 180/360 videos or animations, visible within a browser screen, through dedicated head mounted displays (HMD) from Oculus, and smartphones in conjunction with Google Cardboard. Experiences can be searched, browsed, and accessed from Mindscape Commons website and there are
abundant filters to refine your results. The most valuable content is related to counseling simulations and was developed by Coherent Digital in conjunction with Mercer University and Penn State University. Being able to view content within HMDs is somewhat tricky, but the feeling of immersion
and realism is greater. Pricing is reasonable considering the marketplace for educational VR content, and the number of experiences is expected to grow.",
