Obie for Seniors combats isolation with gesture controlled gaming

Techstination feature for Wednesday, December 30, 2020

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.          An Israeli company called EyeClick..has transformed a projection gaming system developed for kids…for senior housing facilities and for homes.    CEO Ariel Almos says many games using the system are gesture controlled…with seniors getting both physical and mental benefits..

“Just by using their hands and waving their hands…our sensors would pick their movement and they can interact with many different games and activities that stimulate their cognitive and physical capabilities.”

There are many games…and they can be played touch free…on a floor, wall or table…making them safer.   There’s more information at www.obieforseniors.com or www.obieforhome.com.  That’s spelled O B I E.
