M3W
M3W project attempts to utilise the fact that on-line games are able to collect behavioural data in order to measure mental (and motor) abilities and especially their changes over time. If we can measure states and state changes in a scientifically sound way and a strictly controlled environment then we can provide better and more help in time for the elderly and their families. The main objective of the project is to develop a mental wellness toolset for self-usage (i.e. for the individuals and their families), and to a lesser extent for the medical experts (psychiatrists, psychologists, carers, etc.). The goal is to measure and visualise mental changes, tendencies in an entertaining way, and to give indications, sort of warnings, alarms or reports, to the effected persons and their relatives, friends that it is advisable to visit a physician. Our ambition is to compare one’s mental wellness to his/her own past mental wellness conditions (in relative values), while it is not our aim to compare one’s mental ability to others’ one. ICT & web technologies should be used out maximally.
