MY SESSIONS
Communicating Through Play: Sensory-Enriched Experiences for Learning and Engagement
About session
In this presentation, Lee will explore how they at Sensory Guru begin with the most complex use cases and work towards creating universally accessible solutions. Their flagship systems, such as the Magic Carpet, leverage motion tracking to provide users with a responsive, interactive surface where they can engage with a wide range of content tailored to their specific sensory, cognitive, and mobility needs. Their eye-tracking software opens new doors for individuals at the earliest stages of their learning journey, offering visual stimulation and the opportunity to develop higher-level skills through play and exploration.
Their latest innovation, the Magic Room, takes this a step further by allowing entire environments to be adapted to the needs of individuals and groups, creating personalised interactive communication and learning spaces. With a device-agnostic approach, Magic Room supports communication and control applications on iOS, Android, and Windows platforms, and is compatible with both assistive and conventional input modalities, including speech. Through careful observation and objective analysis, they continuously refine their understanding to deliver optimised, engaging learning experiences that truly make a difference. Join Lee and explore how sensory-enriched play can become a powerful tool for communication and learning, and how their technology is paving the way for a more inclusive future.
