Cognitive rehabilitation using virtual reality for children with rare diseases
Abstract
The aim of public and private health institutions is to prevent, mitigate or suppress the effects that endanger the lives and health of populations. Rare diseases are generally genetic and hereditary diseases that appear in pediatric age. Rare diseases are chronic diseases with a risk of causing death or physical, neurological and/or cognitive impairment. Virtual Reality applications are tools to improve the cognitive rehabilitation process. The aim of this paper is to apply the Perfetti method and the Fitts Law in a Virtual Reality application. The application is oriented for patients with rare diseases and allows teaching, learning and measuring the level of learning in processes of memorization and location of objects using Leap Motion Technology.
