Virtual Technology (VT) plays a vital role in many areas. It is a promising tool in healthcare and offers opportunities and solutions for early detection of dementia. Dementia is associated with loss of brain function from the process of ageing. This serious illness needs early diagnosis if medical treatment and healthcare services are to be deployed in time. We developed a new prototype called Virtual Reality for Early Detection of Dementia (VReDD), and have applied psychology theories in an attempt to make an early diagnosis of dementia. In this paper, we will focus on the usability of user satisfaction for young participants to see the complexity and effectiveness of the prototype as a first step prior to the implementation the experiment with elderly, those with a mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer patients. These preliminary findings show that the prototype is reliable and suitable to be used with elderly people.
