Cognitive/Physical Computer-Game Blended Training With Personalized Brain Network Activation Technology for the Elderly

AAR is a patent pending exercise and gaming (exergaming) computer platform with a physical training component (PTC) and a cognitive training component (CTC). It fully immerses a user inside a virtual environment where he is practising complex everyday activities, such as going shopping, using the transportation, visiting a foreign city, eating at a restaurant, cooking dinner etc. His motor behaviour is monitored by means of motion capture, while immersed at this full-body immersion. In addition his cognition is monitored in real-time with Personalized Brain Network Activity (PBNA) screening. Both the motor and brain analyses are then used to update the configuration, type and difficulty of the AAR scenarios.
