Serious Game Alzheimer App

Tc-Web wants to realize a feasibility study aimed to study the development field of serious games on the mobile platform in ehealth environment and specifically for diagnostics / rehabilitation of Alzheimer’s patients. It is necessary to assess which kind of games are useful for Alzheimer’s patients, and how to use multimedia tools to realize the serious game more effective for the specific disease. We have to analyze the serious game on the market and on the mobile platform (few) than on pc to identify how to improve patient engagement (setting, interaction, notifications to the patient, etc.). Thanks to the skills of Tc-Web we will be able to design the innovation of useful features to a greater engagement. Identify how and which data to collect in the game phase in order to get an indication of the positive link between the game and the disease (number of hours played, response times, better performance over time, etc.). The interaction with experts allow to realize serious games that have a very big importance for patients and for healthcare professionals.
