Analysis of eye vergence responses for the early detection and monitoring of cognitive and mental disorders

Project description

A tool for early mental disorder diagnosis

Ageing is often associated with cognitive and mental disorders such as dementia, Alzheimer's, depression and Parkinson's disease, which have high social and economic impacts. The methods used by physicians and psychologists to detect early signs of the diseases are not effective and don't prevent the disorders. The EU-funded MindTrack project proposes a unique patented independent-support instrument that offers early diagnosis and treatment control of cognitive and mental disorders. The uniqueness of the tool relies on the analysis of small involuntary eye movements called cognitive vergence. The solution includes a biometric software platform with interactive games that capture eye-associated information and a remote cloud server for AI algorithm-driven data analysis. The project aims to develop the solution for commercialisation.
