Visual coordination ability training method, device and program product

The present invention relates to a visual coordination ability training method, apparatus and program product, and more particularly to an interactive game using Augmented Reality (AR) to train a user's spatial visualization ability.

Spatial visualization capabilities are an important brain cognitive ability that contributes to the individual's sense of direction and personal orientation in the environment. However, as humans grow older, spatial visualization capabilities will degenerate and affect the ability to find ways to read and map.

In order to help elderly people maintain their spatial visualization capabilities and delay degeneration, they are generally trained in visual training. A common test of mental rotation is used. The so-called mental rotation refers to the ability of an individual to automatically rotate the spatial relationship of the scene in the brain. For example, the average person can use the plane map to travel in an imaginary way, and use the ability of the mind to rotate at the turn to judge the left turn. Or turn right.

The traditional mental rotation test requires the subject to judge whether the left and right objects are the same object or a mirrored object to test and train their spatial visualization capabilities. However, the above method is more boring.

The invention utilizes an augmented reality (AR) interactive game test and trains the subject's mental rotation ability, thereby improving the willingness of the subject to use.
