Abstract:
A cochlear implant is an electronic device surgically implanted to improve auditory perception in people suffering of severe hearing loss. While a cochlear implant supports a sufficient spoken communication, it is limited in the reception of more complex sounds. Long training sessions are needed in order to enhance the auditory abilities of the patients and, as a consequence, maintain a high level of interest and concentration during the training tasks is mandatory.
In this paper, we present N.O.T.E. (Note Over The Edge): a video game designed for auditory training of prelingually deaf children with cochlear implant. N.O.T.E. has been designed as an integrated and flexible system, using a game-based approach to present to the children a set of tests with different complexity, and allowing to the therapist a complete monitoring of the progresses of the training.
