SOCIABLE
SOCIABLE (a motivating platform for elderly networking) pilots a radically new ICT based approach for integrated support of mental activity, as well as boosting of social interaction for individuals suffer from mild forms of dementia.
SOCIABLE integrates human support and care services offered by care centres and specialized health professionals, with state-of-the-art ICT infrastructures and independent living technologies.
The approach builds upon three tested (in the scope of past EU projects) technological pillars, which have proven therapeutical value , namely:
(a) Novel perceptive mixed reality interfaces based on multi-touch surface computing devices,
(b) A modular platform for cognitive training games development, which allows the flexible creation and customization of cognitive training games and
(c) “Profiling” and social “matching” capabilities boosting social networking and interaction between aged individuals.
SOCIABLE is piloted with the participation of a minimum of 350 senior citizens in 7 different pilot sites (TRONDHEIM Kommune, Hygeia, Morgagni Pierantoni Hospital, Municipality of Forlì, Social Policy Center of the Municipality of Kifissia, Santa Lucia Foundation and PREVI S.L) from 4 European countries (Greece, Italy, Norway, Spain).
