Abstract EN
A prototype to improve learning tasks for mentally handicapped people is shown in this research paper using ambient intelligence techniques and based on cyber-physical systems.
The whole system is composed of a worktable, a cyber-glove (both with several RFID and NFC detection zones), and an AmI software application for modeling and workflow guidance.
A case study was carried out by the authors where sixteen mentally handicapped people and 3 trainers were involved in the experiment.
The experiment consisted in the execution of several memorization tasks of movements of objects using the approach presented in this paper.
The results obtained were very interesting, indicating that this kind of solutions are feasible and allow the learning of complex tasks to some types of mentally handicapped people.
In addition, at the end of the paper are presented some lessons learned after performing the experimentation.
