Ambient Experience KittenScanner (2003)
The KittenScanner was developed as part of Ambient Experience to help children feel more at ease when undergoing MRI scans. This child-sized scanner is placed in the waiting -room for children to play with before their scans. The child can put toys into the scanner and in a playful way learn about the technology. The aim is to make children feel less anxious during their own scans, so they lie stiller and make it easier for a better scan to be made.
