EyeClick CEO Ariel Almos presenting at the Israel-Japan Conference

At the recent Israel-Japan conference, EyeClick CEO Ariel Almos captivated the audience with a presentation on Obie for Seniors. With this innovative technology, Almos aimed to bridge the gap between digital gaming and physical well-being, particularly for seniors in care homes. Here are a few highlights from his inspiring talk.

Almos began by acknowledging the benefits and drawbacks of digital technology. He emphasized the importance of addressing physical inactivity, a leading cause of disease and mortality, especially among seniors. With Obie, EyeClick's most advanced interactive projector, Almos sought to provide digital games that promote physical movement, cognitive enhancement, and social interaction.

Obie was described as a revolutionary solution that utilizes 3D sensors and motion-tracking algorithms to transform any surface into an interactive play area. Unlike traditional gaming, Obie doesn't require the user to hold or wear anything. It offers hundreds of games designed to encourage physical activity while providing an enjoyable experience.

EyeClick recognized the challenges faced by seniors in care homes, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. With Obie for Seniors, they sought to alleviate isolation, loneliness, and the lack of physical and cognitive stimulation. By creating an intelligent sensor-equipped projector and immersive gaming platform, Obie offers meaningful play, boosting participation, happiness, alertness, and socialization among seniors.

Almos shared the incredible impact of Obie for Seniors, citing over 1,000 installations in care homes worldwide. A remarkable 94 percent of care home personnel observed improvements in residents' physical and mental health, while 97 percent of seniors using Obie showed significant improvement in motor skills. EyeClick's efforts have garnered international awards, national grants, and recognition as a market leader in meaningful and healthy digital play solutions.

Almos concluded his presentation by expressing excitement about discussing collaborations in the Japanese market. EyeClick aims to expand its reach and continue making a positive impact on seniors' lives by partnering with organizations in Japan.
