Hi there! I’m Francisco, a Chicago-based occupational therapist and an aging-in-place specialist working with older adults in their home environment.
I’m also passionate about using technology especially when it increases my patient’s engagement during our therapy sessions.
Using my skills in 3D modeling, programming, and user experience design, I’m thrilled to showcase Augmented Reality interactions that I have designed using the empty blocks of time that the COVID-19 pandemic created.
The AR experiences are designed with the patient and the therapist in mind. Since AR is a fairly new technology, it still has ways to go to maximize it’s potential. However, you don’t need any special device other than your iPhone to make use of it (sorry Android users, it only works in iOS devices with Quick Look capabilities for now).
I would love to hear what you think as you and your patients use these interactions to complement your treatment sessions.
Enjoy!
