The continuous attenuation of the old people’s cognitive functions is one of the most common problems encountered nowadays. However, the absence of curative treatments for the mild cognitive impairment like Alzheimer’s disease pushes the specialists to propose alternative solutions, for medicinal treatments, which can be based on tele-operating robots, remote monitoring platforms and software applications for cognitive stimulation.
In this paper, we move from the classic cognitive methods of the stimulation related to the old person to ecological solutions that exploit the person’s data to propose adaptive activities. Ecological solutions use environment, connected objects data and person profile, for building activities of the cognitive stimulation that adapts to the corresponding situation. To build activities, efficiently, we propose to exploit immersive analytics potential to analyze and visualize the available huge amount of data through constructing virtual environments for the simulations, leading to better decisions that may influence the life of the persons.
