The project
PLAYTIME develops an integrated theratainment solution for care, rehabilitation and diagnostics. PLAYTIME motivates in a playful way to carry out personalized, emotion-oriented exercise sessions to stimulate cognitive processes, perform physical activities and promote social inclusion. The aim is to motivate people with dementia to start a positive feedback cycle of regular training with sensory systems that allow daily diagnostics and to obtain recommendations based on this data that propose more personalized and more suitable exercises for improved training.

Project details
Social and physical activities have a significant, positive influence on the course of dementia, but many patients often lack the motivation to perform daily exercises. The game developed in the PLAYTIME project adapts the requirements of playful training at home to the individual goals of the individual players and thus motivates them again and again. The PLAYTIME system includes an interactive mat, a mobile app, a diagnostic toolbox, a serious game for caregivers and a recommendation toolbox. With this interactive, multimodal and digital solution, we are following the global trend of digitalization, gamification, individualization and demographic change in the growing market of nursing, rehabilitation and diagnostics.
