Abstract:

An increasing number of older adults with neurodegenerative diseases and a growing gap in healthcare services lead to a higher need of suitable means for prevention and intervention in order to support the maintenance of an autonomous life. Software for cognitive and psycho-motoric training has the potential to track the varying abilities of a user and provide an adapted training that challenges without producing cognitive overload. We propose a prototype of a system that provides adapted training for older adults based on dynamic di-agnosis. Within this contribution, we present the concept and actual stage of development as well as first results of user studies in a geriatric day clinic.
