Abstract:
The PROLOG project aims to provide a complementary tool for the assessment of cognitive skills of mentally disabled working people. The project provides a platform to evaluate, in a quick and personalized way, the attentional performance of users through specific tasks. Interaction with the tests is done by Kinect technology. The platform records the worker’s performance on various tasks and presents the evolution over time in order to detect possible cognitive impairment. Longitudinal evaluation of cognitive impaired workers will help the existing unbalanced retirement practices.
