Introduction to Cyber Therapy

As part of the Media Sandbox project, HMC Interactive will develop cyber therapy based software to help benefit children with learning disorders which could be used in specialised sensory rooms. The software would stimulate the user by giving visual feedback to sounds (such as their own voice or an instrument) in an aesthetically pleasing form which they would not normally have in everyday life.

Research begins on tonal therapy.

Using quantitative data such as audiograms, music will be produced that would relate to the tones and frequency involved in the specific requirements of the user which would benefit their tonal therapy and progression. On top of the aural based stimulation, graphic visualisations would also appear in the sensory room which react to the noises and sounds given off, providing two beneficial types of feedback.
