The research project, Generative Soundscapes for Enhanced Engagement in Non-Invasive Neurorehabilitation, focuses on the incorporation of multimedia technologies in the form of a generative soundscape in a traditional restorative treatment method for cognitive impairments to improve engagement rate, well-being and user experience of the patients. It utilizes the currently developed engagement framework and protocols to create a sound based intervention and expand the effectiveness of neurorehabilitation treatment. The associated experiment will contrast the fundamental treatment method with a mirrored experience strengthened through added multimedia technology to analyze how engaged the patient was and how the additional sound based multimedia element improved their willingness to participate. Ultimately, the research aims to assess the impact of a possibly heightened engagement rate in patients through the incorporation of multimedia technologies as an adjunction to traditional treatment methods and promote a more comfortable experience during treatment.
