This week at CES 2024 in Las Vegas, Dallas-based Mynd Immersive launched the “Great American Elderverse,” a virtual destination filled “with love, care, and compassion for older adults,” with exercises and experiences to promote mental, physical, emotional, and cognitive health.
In collaboration with Dallas-based AT&T, HTC VIVE, and the CTA Foundation, Mynd says the initiative aims to introduce its virtual reality (VR) therapeutics to more than 500 underserved senior care communities.
Seniors will be able to explore Meditation Island, play Mynd games, or travel the world and beyond—all from the safety and comfort of their communities.

Long ago, maternity wear was one of the unmentionables of fashion. That changed forever in 1937, when sisters Elsie and Edna Frankfurt founded Page Boy, America's first high-end maternity wear firm, in Dallas. In 1939, the sisters patented their game-changing solution: an adjustable skirt design for pregnant women that "accommodated" a baby bump instead of clumsily trying to hide it.
