Australian studio using Unreal Engine 4 and Kinect 2 to provide sensory therapy to dementia patients
Opaque Multimedia is raising money for The Forest Project, an interactive virtual environment designed to help improve the quality of life for people living with dementia. http://goo.gl/SJ2nEN #Playistic
The Forest Project - A crowdfunding campaign for those living with dementia
So What Is The Forest Project?
Created with Unreal Engine 4, The Forest Project is an initiative of Alzheimer's Australia Vic and developer, Opaque Multimedia. Based in Melbourne, this digital design studio specialise in the application of video game technologies in novel domains, such as interactive education and virtual reality simulations.
How Does It Work?Â
“The objective of The Forest Project is to improve the quality of life for people living with dementia by escaping from the monotony of their living spaces,” said Opaque Multimedia Co-Founder Norman Wang. “Future expansions will include more locations, interactions and preferences. Our eventual goal is to put The Forest Project in every aged care facility in Australia, and similar facilities all over the world.”
Crowdfunding CampaignÂ
The Forest Project, which is currently seeking crowdfunding support, uses virtual reality as a form of sensory therapy for people living with dementia by allowing them to enter a more visually stimulating and interactive environment. Research has shown that a person’s sensory abilities remain intact even in the late stages of dementia.
Opaque Multimedia's previous work, the Virtual Dementia Experience (VDE), utilizes motion-sensing to immerse participants in the role of a person living with dementia. By helping to raise empathy among elder-care workers and families, the VDE showcases the real-life impacts possible by serious games.
Why Unreal Engine 4?
Wang continued by praising the flexibility of the Unreal Engine 4. “Game engines that specialize too specifically towards a certain type of game limit the developer’s options, and can doom a serious game project before it even starts. In our experience with Unreal Engine 4, we have found that it has versatility and flexibility, and is clearly designed with the end user in mind.”
Epic Games VP Jay Wilbur said, “The work that Opaque Multimedia is doing is very exciting, and we are proud that Unreal Engine 4 has been able to help the team see its vision realized. We have worked hard to give Unreal Engine 4 the unparalleled versatility needed to bring any concept to life, and projects like the VDE and The Forest Project make those efforts worthwhile.”
