Virtual Action Planning Supermarket (VAP-S) Software

"The VAP-S simulates a supermarket with multiple aisles displaying items. Several obstacles are designed to hinder the progression of the shopper along the aisles. In addition, virtual humans populate the supermarket. The VAP-S is designed so that the user enters the supermarket behind the cart and navigates within the supermarket via the keyboard keys. He is thus able to experience the environment personally without any intermediate. The task is to purchase 7 items from a list, proceed to the cashier and pay for them.~We propose 9 sessions of 45 minutes. The results will be analyzed to develop goals for intervention, together with the client to study his awareness of his performance of IADL and Executive functions and to enhance his motivation to participate in the intervention."
