On September 28th, during the Festival della Salute in Novara, a groundbreaking presentation explored how extended reality (XR) technology can revolutionize the care of elderly individuals. The event showcased cutting-edge applications deployed on head-mounted displays, specifically designed to enhance the well-being and autonomy of older adults.

Our researchers demonstrated how XR could assist in monitoring health conditions, offering cognitive support, and improving social interaction. These immersive tools hold the potential to provide tailored care experiences, allowing healthcare professionals and caregivers to better address the unique needs of seniors, while promoting independence and safety.

The presentation sparked significant interest, underlining the vital role of technology in the future of healthcare, particularly in aging societies. This initiative is set to drive further innovation, positioning extended reality as a valuable tool in elder care.
