Broomx collaborates with Fundació Barça and Vall d’Hebron Hospital to create a new immersive space for adolescent patients

 

Broomx is proud to play a key role in Univers Digital Vall d’Hebron, an innovative project led by Vall d’Hebron University Hospital in collaboration with the Fundació Barça, aiming to improve the wellbeing of teenagers with serious illnesses through immersive and interactive digital experiences.

As the official immersive technology provider, Broomx has designed and equipped the new immersive room—part of the Espai Fundació Barça—with state-of-the-art projection systems that enable patients to experience calming, educational, and socially enriching content without leaving their hospital room.

A project co-created with adolescents

 

This initiative is unique in that it was co-designed with a group of 50 adolescent patients, who helped shape both the concept and the content of the immersive experiences. The project responds to a growing need for specialized care and attention for teens in hospitals—an age group often overlooked between pediatric and adult care.

 

Through VR, AR, and immersive environments, patients can engage in a variety of experiences such as:

• Learning languages through interactive content
• Exploring cultural and nature-based virtual environments
• Enjoying guided meditations and therapeutic visual journeys
• Connecting with FC Barcelona players through exclusive virtual moments

The goal is not only to entertain, but to reduce stress, support emotional health, and promote engagement during long hospital stays or recurring treatments.
