About

paINTeraction is an innovative software that leverages advanced technology to provide a unique interactive experience. The only tools useful for its proper operation are a screen, a motion-sensitive camera, and a computer, which work synergistically to create a dynamic interactive environment.

Designed primarily for the education, inclusion and integration of people with disabilities, paINTeraction’s goal is to make its use accessible and natural to everyone

Users can see themselves on the screen, as in a mirror, thus activating mirror neurons, which play an important role in emulation and interaction. Every body movement is translated into striking and engaging visual effects.

paINTeraction is developed through four interaction modes, each designed to stimulate the user in a different way:

  • Movement tracked by light trails: the user moves the arms and the movement is visible on the screen in the form of light trails, creating an immediate visual reaction.

  • Use of voice for vowel outpouring: by uttering a vowel, the user sees the corresponding letter appear as a trail of light, promoting an audio-visual interaction.

  • Hand movement to draw a figure: the user can draw in the air, using their hands, and see the drawing appear on the screen in real time, stimulating creativity.

  • Creating moving geometric shapes: the user can manipulate and move geometric shapes that appear on the screen, interacting with them through their own body movements.

The goal is to soon integrate AI to add new features that enhance interaction for people with disabilities.

This advanced technology stimulates creativity, promotes social inclusion and offers a unique interaction experience, making paINTeraction an ideal tool for therapy, learning and recreation.

To boost visibility, continuously enrich the product, and, most importantly, offer people with disabilities a tool that helps them feel truly comfortable while learning, connecting, feeling included, and enjoying themselves, we are fully open to all forms of collaboration and partnership
