Mobile Cognitive Training Games for older adults with mild cognitive impairment

This paper presents an integrated mobile cognitive training platform to monitor and support the training of cognitive training interventions targeting people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Our solution aims (a) to automatically detect patterns of mental behaviour based on game-play metrics of large groups of older players, (b) to establish novel game design and development paradigms integrating a continuous and ongoing cognitive training process for older individuals with mild cognitive impairment, (c) to monitor the player's capacity to perform real-life training exercises through the adoption of Virtual reality technologies and provide objective feedback and (d) to identify a methodological user centered design framework for building VR games for older adults.
