VR

VR headsets are one project which will be developed by Swansea University's masters in gender, power and violence, which starts in September.

It is hoped the VR headsets project on the course could be used by student police officers during training.

Megan Salter, who helped develop the project, said VR did a "really good job" of allowing trainees to experience "what it might be like to respond to a domestic violence case but in a safe environment".

The 21-year-old post-graduate student has been working with trainee police officers on the VR tool to ensure responses to victims are conducive to tackling the problem.

VR scenarios have all been created based on experiences and input from survivors of abuse or assault.
