FAQ

  • Rental

    • Why should you use VR in education?

      VR makes learning more interactive and immersive. Instead of only reading or watching, students can actually experience subjects, which often improves engagement, understanding, and memory.

    • Which learning goals does VR support?

      VR fits well with learning goals related to discovery, collaboration, problem-solving, and technological literacy. It stimulates curiosity and active learning in almost every subject.

    • How can teachers use VR in their lessons?

      The VR headsets are easy to use during regular lessons, project weeks, or themed activities. Teachers can use VR as an introduction, deeper exploration, or reflection moment within a topic. No technical experience is required.

    • Does VR fit with existing school subjects?

      Yes. There are educational VR experiences for geography, biology, history, art, engineering, and physics. Students can, for example, explore volcanoes up close, visit ancient civilizations, or experience space missions.

    • Is VR only suitable for older students?

      No, VR is suitable from around 7 years old. Younger students mainly learn through discovery and experience, while older students can explore more advanced topics such as science, technology, or history.

    • Can multiple students learn at the same time with one set?

      Yes. While one or two students are using VR, classmates can watch on a screen, complete assignments, or make observations. This turns it into a group activity rather than an individual experience.

    • How can schools integrate VR into a lesson program?

      Schools can use VR as part of project-based education, STEAM lessons (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math), or technology orientation. We are happy to help create a suitable setup.

    • Are ready-made educational programs available?

      Yes, we offer ready-made educational packages with themes such as space, the human body, sustainability, or art and culture. These can be used directly in the classroom.

    • What do students learn from VR that they cannot get from books?

      VR allows students to experience situations that would otherwise be impossible: traveling through space, walking in ancient Egypt, or zooming into molecules. It makes abstract concepts more concrete and appeals to both visual and hands-on learners.

    • Can teachers or schools get advice on which VR content fits best?

      Yes, we are happy to help. Let us know during the reservation what topics or goals you want to focus on, and we will suggest suitable educational VR experiences.

  • Booking

    • How does renting a VR set from you work?

      You reserve a VR set through the website or by email. We confirm the rental period and prepare everything you need: headset, controllers, and chargers. On the agreed day, you pick up the set at VRcafe in Haarlem.

    • What do I need to use a VR set?

      Not much - just a bit of free space and a power outlet. The headsets are wireless and ready to use. A manual is included in the case, and our hosts will briefly explain everything when you pick it up.

    • How long can I rent for?

      You can rent for a day, a weekend, or a week. Want to keep the set longer? Let us know in time, and we will check if an extension is possible.

    • How do I reserve multiple sets at once?

      For business or educational purposes, you can reserve multiple sets at once. Please contact us so we can coordinate availability and the rental period with you.

    • Do I need to pay a deposit?

      A deposit usually applies for consumers. For business or educational rentals, we arrange this administratively in advance.

    • What if I want to change or cancel my reservation?

      That is possible, as long as you let us know in time. Up to a few days before the pickup date, you can change your reservation free of charge. After that, we may charge a small fee for the reserved equipment.

    • Can I choose which games or experiences are installed on the VR set?

      Yes, when making your reservation you can indicate what type of games you would like - for example action, adventure, or creative games. We will prepare the VR set with a matching selection so you can immediately start with what you enjoy most.

    • Will I get help if I cannot get the VR set working at home?

      Yes. You will receive a short explanation and a manual when picking up the set. If something does not work, you can call or email us - we will help you step by step to make sure everything works properly.

    • Can someone else pick up or return the VR set for me?

      Yes, as long as that person can show the confirmation and an ID. Please mention this in advance with your reservation so we know who will pick up or return the set.

    • What happens if I return the VR set late?

      Please let us know as soon as possible. If the set is rented out again immediately afterward, an additional rental day may be charged. We always try to think along with you to find a practical solution.

  • General

    • What is included in the rental set?

      Each set includes a VR headset, controllers, chargers, a manual, and hygiene covers. The equipment is checked in advance and fully charged.

    • How much space do I need to play?

      Approximately 1.5 × 1.5 meters is enough for most VR experiences. Make sure the floor is free of obstacles and that you have enough room to move.

    • Do I need to install anything myself?

      No, everything is plug-and-play. Turn on the headset, follow the short instructions on the screen, and you can start immediately. Having trouble? You can call or email us.

    • What happens if something breaks or does not work?

      Please contact us immediately. We will first see if we can solve it remotely. Minor signs of use are not a problem, but in case of damage we will discuss a solution together.

    • How is the equipment cleaned?

      All headsets are thoroughly cleaned before and after each rental period and provided with new hygiene covers. We also recommend keeping the headset clean during use.

    • How do I return the VR set?

      Return the set to VRcafe on the agreed date and time. Our staff will briefly check the contents and battery status, after which the deposit will be released or the rental completed.

    • What games or experiences are available on the VR headset?

      The headsets are preloaded with a selection of popular VR games and experiences. Think of action, sports, puzzle, and creative games. When picking up the set, we will explain exactly which titles are included and how to start them.

    • Can multiple people use the same VR set?

      Yes, they can. The headset is easy to share between players. You can switch users by taking off the headset and restarting it. Hygiene covers are included for safe and comfortable use by multiple people.

    • How long does the headset battery last?

      On average, you can play for 2 to 3 hours on a single battery charge. Chargers are included in the case so you can recharge during breaks. We recommend connecting the headset to the charger during longer breaks.

    • Is VR suitable for people who have never tried it before?

      Absolutely! The set is user-friendly and suitable for beginners. You will receive a short explanation when picking it up, and the headset screen provides clear instructions. Most people get the hang of it within a few minutes.
