Is rEtreat VR?
At SeedVR, we're proud to offer a one-of-a-kind immersive experience called rEtreat. While some people might wonder if it's "VR," the answer is a bit more nuanced.
Technically, virtual reality refers specifically to computer-generated images that create a simulated environment. By contrast, rEtreat uses 360-degree video and audio capture to transport you to some of the world's most beautiful natural settings.
But for us, the more important question is: what is reality, really? We believe that exploring the boundaries between the digital and physical worlds can help us better understand ourselves and our relationship to the natural world. With rEtreat, we're committed to providing an experience that promotes positive growth, whether you're looking for a way to relax, improve your mental health, boost productivity, or simply feel more in control of your environment.
So if you're looking for a new way to connect with nature and experience the benefits of immersive technology, rEtreat is the perfect choice.
How is feeling present in a digital forest good?
We all know that spending time in nature can have a positive impact on our health and wellbeing. Additionally, research has shown that immersive experiences in digital spaces can also affect our behavior and overall mental state.
At SeedVR, we're on a mission to make these benefits accessible to everyone, with a focus on promoting positive growth in the emerging industry. We're dedicated to staying up-to-date with the latest research and development, so that we can continue to provide top-quality immersive experiences that help people feel their best.

Does rEtreat capture any of my haptic data?
At SeedVR, we're committed to creating immersive experiences that help our customers feel more relaxed, focused, and centered. That's why we've designed rEtreat to be an escape to a digitally-captured natural environment, with no data generation required.
We understand that some people are very data-driven and might be interested in tracking their body health during their rEtreat experience. That's why we encourage users to explore the many great body-health tracking apps and supportive wearables that are available on the market. With these tools, you can collect valuable data about your physical and mental health during your immersive rEtreat journey, helping you stay on track towards your goals and feel your best.
Whether you're interested in tracking data or simply looking for a way to disconnect from the stresses of everyday life, rEtreat is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to experience the calming and refreshing benefits of nature.
Will I experience the same rEtreat moment multiple times?
At SeedVR, we want to ensure that every rEtreat experience is unique and memorable. While you may encounter the same location or moment multiple times, our selection is constantly growing and changing, with new environments and vistas to explore.
We encourage users to approach each rEtreat experience with an open mind, embracing the beauty and tranquility of the natural world without trying to predict or anticipate what comes next. By staying present in the moment and experiencing each new perspective with fresh eyes, you can deepen your connection with the three-dimensional space and enhance your overall sense of calm and relaxation.
So, whether you're a first-time user or a seasoned rEtreat veteran, you can look forward to a constantly evolving and engaging immersive experience that brings the natural world to life in a whole new way.
