There is no place like home for children. But when your child is suffering from an illness, you tend to spend a lot of time in the hospital. Samsung Electronics Canada and The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) hopes to ease things somehow with a new interactive digital environment right in the hospital. Located on the 9th floor of SickKids, the Samsung Space offers the children and their families things like a 75-inch SUHD TV for movie nights, a number of GearVR virtual reality headsets, Gear360 cameras, Galaxy Tab E devices, Galaxy View devices, and a Synced Interactive Table to let visitors play with their favourite apps and games.

Samsung Space will be open six days a week for in-patients and their loved ones to help provide a sense of normalcy for them. It is part of Samsung’s global philanthropic “Hope for Children” program as well as the company’s ongoing, multi-year partnership with SickKids.
