KomSim (The Communications Simulator)
Objective
The project aims to test if the technology being used in the Dansksimulator (Danish Language Simulator) platform can also be successfully used in rehabilitating the verbal language skills of seniors with brain damage.
Every year, thousands suffer blood clot in the brain, which leads to reduced language comprehension and verbal ability. Dansksimulatoren is an online 3D virtual language and culture learning game for Danish using Automatic Speech Recognition and conversational artificial intelligencer.
Activities
The Dansksimulator technology requires collaboration between audiologists across the country, in determining a specification for the modification and adaptation of the technology. The KomSim prototype will then be developed, tested and adjusted until October 2014.
Partnership
The KomSim is being developed in cooperation with:
- Dansksimulatoren ApS
- Center for Kommunikation og Velfærdsteknologi (Center for Comunication and Welfare Technology)
- Alelo Inc.
- VIFIN
Funding
KomSim is partly funded by OPI Funds under Syddansk Vækstforum (South Denmark Growth Forum) and the project partners’ own financing.
