Abstract

In this paper we present a Virtual Reality (VR) system that allows a user to sing together with the Danish National Children choir. The system was co-designed together with psychologists, in order to be adopted to prevent and cope with social anxiety. We present the different elements of the system, as well as a preliminary evaluation which shows the potential of the system as a tool to help coping with social anxiety.
