NAME OF THE PROJECT LIFETIME is an open, collaborative teaching platform. It enables the creation and sharing of 3D digital tutors able to interact in real-time using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Artificial Empathy (AE) with end-users in a multimodal, multi-sensorial, empathic way on different devices. 3D digital teacher is responsive and adaptive: He/she can diagnose end users’ different situations of disability, origins, needs and peculiarities in real-time.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
LIFETIME platform allows creation and delivering on different channels of training based on highly interactive 3D personas. Personas are able to emotionally communicate through main 5 senses, to dialog with audience, convey contents and emotions. 3D persona can convey: text, audio, video, and other multimodal and multi-sensorial content, including capturing external stimuli (as: voice/audio, gestures, smells, visual images, etc.).
3D personas are available for every device: from PC to Console, mobile devices and holographic projectors, virtual environments/virtual worlds to real-life learning situations (in-house installation with sensors).
The main LIFETIME features are:
- Adaptive: Able to react to different needs; Adaptive and personalised learning and assessment, multimodal/-sensory interaction technologies and advanced interfaces, networking and capacity-building
- Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Empathy: Resulting from multidisciplinary research (neuroscience, peda/learning theories, educational psychology, AI)
- Academics, Experts, IT developers, 3D designers can develop courses: Formal and informal learning, including workplace
- Multi-modal and multi-sensorial tutor: Innovative technologies, standards, adaptation to learning scenarios, multi-sensorial input and ability to prioritize inputs
- One platform for different user needs: Develop and integrate innovative digital educational tools, solutions and services
- Real-time Interactive teachers/tutors: Support engagement for teachers, learners and parents
- Multiplatform and multi-device access:Reduce current restrictions of time and physical space in learning and teaching
- Connection between formal, non-formal and informal learning, remove obstacles for ubiquitous learning
- Open to medical devices to collect user medical and biomedical data: Include a specific target group on disabled in education
OBJECTIVES
Main targets are:
- People affected by learning disabilities and disorders: Dyslexia,dyscalculia,dysgraphia, dyspraxia, aphasia/dysphasia, Auditory processing disorder, Visual processing disorder.
- Single person,communities or groups isolated for geographical, cultural reasons (immigration, detention institutes, citizens of the territory struck by a status of calamity).
- People affected by physical disabilities or problems connected with the possibility to move and to live their life independently (Sensory Difficulties and reduced mobility)
- Electronic Noise application/industry: the use of this sense could be fundamental for training people in some niche specialization as in first medical intervention, where the smell could be used to identify the kind of infection that a patient have
