See-LEVEL VR headsets - Fast Relief from Sea Sickness

See-LEVEL is not just a product; it’s the culmination of years of research, development, and comprehensive testing. It represents a significant breakthrough in the battle against sea sickness, with its price reflecting the innovative work and technology behind its creation. 

The extensive and intricate development process, along with the collaboration of multiple partners, justifies the cost of See-LEVEL. This price reflects the in-depth research, cutting-edge technology, and thorough testing that went into crafting a solution capable of significantly reducing or even eliminating sea sickness in real- world conditions. Additionally, since this technology had never been developed before, patents were secured, ensuring that See-LEVEL remains a unique and protected solution in the market.

Once you put on the VR headset, you’ll be presented with a high-resolution display for each eye, creating a stereoscopic 3D effect. This provides depth and immersion in a virtual environment. The field of view can vary between different headsets but is generally wider than what you would experience on a regular monitor or TV. The VR headset incorporates head-tracking technology, so as you move your head, the virtual environment responds accordingly, enhancing the sense of presence and realism. This tracking is made possible by built-in sensors, gyroscopes, and accelerometers that update the scene 75 times per second.

There are no side effects to using See-LEVEL making tasks involving driving afterwards, operating machinery far safer. And rather than trying to predict when you will be seasick by taking medication earlier, you use See-LEVEL only IF you become seasick, therefore enjoying your journey without side effects.

Before embarking on your journey, it’s important to familiarize yourself with See-LEVEL. Here’s how you can prepare:

  • Usage: Spend some time using See-LEVEL in a calm environment to get a feel for how it works.
  • Fitting: Ensure the headset fits comfortably and securely on your head, adjusting the straps to prevent pressure points.
  • Charging: Fully charge the device before your trip. Connect it to the charger and allow it to reach full battery capacity.
  • Volume Control: Adjust the volume to a comfortable level and get familiar with the controls.
  • Re-Centering: Learn how to re-center the view if it feels off, ensuring you’re always looking straight ahead.
  • IPS (Interpupillary Distance) Adjustment: Adjust the IPS for optimal visual clarity and comfort.
  • Powering On/Off & Standby: Practice turning the device on and off, as well as putting it in standby mode to conserve battery.
  • Using with Glasses: If you wear glasses, practice using the headset over them to ensure a comfortable fit.

Typically, users experience relief from sea sickness within 12 to 15 minutes of using See-LEVEL if applied at the early onset of symptoms. During long offshore voyages, you may need to wear the SEE-LEVEL headset for extended periods. Relief may take up to 40 minutes in these cases or after prolonged illness. Patience is important; relief will eventually come, especially in challenging conditions.

See-LEVEL has been tested by over 400 personnel at the defense forces with the average time to reviver being 12.5 minutes.

See-LEVEL is in usage by many major commercial clients like Whale Watch Kaikoura, Svitzer Tugs, The Sir David Attenborough Research Vessel, Charter World’s core fleet of superyachts and The Spirit of New Zealand to name a few.
