Abstract

This paper presents a new solution for improving evaluation and intervention processes carried out by therapist. The proposed solution is based on a multiagent system especially designed for occupational therapy. The proposed solution aims at improving the traditional system to fulfill valuation scales, generation of therapy reports and extraction of statistics. Besides, the system proposes new techniques to improve the interaction with the user, by means of interactive cards that can be used for rehabilitation when working with intellectual handicapped patients. The paper shows the proposed application, as well as some preliminary results.
