- 3. Akili Case Study • Akili has designed an assessment game called Evo. It’s objective is somewhat similar to Cog Cubed’s Groundskeeper.
- 5. Akili Case Study • Evo is mainly targeted for the purpose of detecting Alzheimer’s disease. Diagnosing this condition normally requires an expensive PET scan to find amyloid plaques in the brain.
- 7. Akili Case Study • But, Evo may be a more cost effective way to tell if someone has Alzheimers. Like Cog Cubed, researchers created standardized sets of game performance data. With Evo, this includes normal populations versus individuals with Alzheimers.
- 9. Akili Case Study • The game design for Evo tests players on how well they cope with cognitive interference (distractions) which is important for functioning in real life, especially when it comes to self care and safety.
- 11. Akili Case Study • During the game, the player tilts the ipad or iphone device in order to steer an alien down a river. Distractions appear in the form of a fish or a bird.
- 13. Akili Case Study • And players need to tap the screen every time this happens . This performance data is then collected, assessed, and measured against the predetermined standards.
