Recently Stocks Hall Andrew Smith House welcomed OM Interactive who came to demonstrate their motion-activated projection system.
The ground-breaking Mobii system is the first truly mobile motion-activated table-projection system that can easily be moved to those who need it. It can be adjusted to a different height/size surface at the touch of a button making it an invaluable flexible intervention in all care settings.
Here’s Leslie Ann, who lives at Andrew Smith House, photographed here with her husband Barney using the OM Interactive table together. They thoroughly enjoyed the demonstration, discovering meaningful activities to enjoy together. Leslie Ann was fascinated with the coral reef and took on the challenge of the cake making exercise.
The system works by projecting dynamic images on to a clear, clean surface and is designed to stimulate, engage and encourage active participation by those who use it.
Kirstie, Activities Staff at the Home says “As we know sometimes the outside world isn’t accessible to some people, so the table brings that back into the home setting. Access to the beauty and sounds of nature become real with applications such as a walk in the forest or the experience of a virtual coral reef. The system has unlimited content and can be customised to individual needs. Simple games to harder ones, quizzes that can stimulate memory, visits to sweet shops and baking with mum, triggering happy memories and reminiscent moments that can start discussions.”
“Our fundraising to purchase a table for the Home continues – and we welcome further ideas! We can’t wait to continue our fundraising and purchase this fantastic piece of equipment for the people living at Andrew Smith House, enhancing the Activities Programme at the Home.”
