PDF Development of Sports Vision Training System Using Virtual Reality for Prevention of Mild Cognitive Impairment

【Supercategory:7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory:7.40 Vol.40

 ABSTRACT

 In recent years, sports vision has often been included in visual function training forpreserving and restoring human cognitive functions. By taking the primary aspectsof brain science and cognitive psychology into consideration, sports vision can be effective in maintaining cognitive functions. Furthermore, preventive measures againstdementia need to be established for elderly people. In the proposed study, game contentbased on virtual reality was developed for diagnosing and managing mild cognitiveimpairment. A total of 164 paid healthy volunteers participated in the proposed study.Electroencephalogram (EEG) on the brow was performed while conducting theproposed game for sports vision training( SVT).The obtained statistical results of thetheta component in the EEG power spectrum demonstrate that cognitive activity can beenhanced through SVT.
