Abstract
Since the end of the last century, one of the main fields of interest for the world of Virtual Reality (VR) has been its application in healthcare and medicine. Thanks to its nature, VR made easy to visualize complex stimuli in a controlled and secure environment. Recently this technology started to be more accessible to the public, gaining more and more importance and widespread availability. With this in mind, the PEDAL (Personalized Environment for Dementia Assisted Living) project has been developed and carried on by a group of researchers and students in order to develop a VR tool which would help in the assessment of the symptoms of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) patients and in the subsequent intervention.
AD is the most common form of dementia, millions of people in the world are affected by it, and it affects for the largest part the elderly ones, thus becoming more and more common as the life expectancy increases
