Ubisoft new swimming can treat amblyopia?

Ubisoft recently unveiled a new video game designed to treat visually impaired diseases-what we normally call "Amblyopia".

The video game called "Digging Miners to run" (Dig Rush) is developed by Ubisoft and Amblyotech, and is produced by Ubisoft Montreal Studios. Amblyotech is a company designed to provide treatment for a variety of physical ailments by designing applications for smartphones and tablet computers.

The treatment for poor eyesight includes training for amblyopia, but "digging a miner" uses two eyes at the same time to train the brain by contrasting the various levels of red and blue that are seen after wearing stereo glasses. The doctor in charge of the treatment can adjust the game settings to meet the training needs of different patients.

"Due to the limited treatment available, such as the use of eye patches, the patient's compliance is often poor due to discomfort in treatment and susceptibility to discrimination," he said. Amblyotech patented electronic therapy has undergone clinical trials to significantly enhance the visual acuity of children and adults with vision deficiency disorders without the use of blinders. Joseph Koziak, chief executive of Amblyotech, said.

"In partnership with Ubisoft, we can further provide the doctors with complete and accurate images of the treatment that patients use to help them monitor progress in the treatment process," he said. ”

The game is based on Dr. Robert Hess of McGill University (McGill Univesity), Dr. Benjamin Thomason (Benjamin Thompson), Dr. Behzad Mansuri (Behzad Mansouri), and Jeremy · The patented method developed by Dr. Jeremy Cooperstock, Dr Lang Dor (Long to) and Dr Jeff Brum (Jeff Blum), and Amblyotech has obtained permission to use the patent.

"Digging for miners" is a great opportunity for us to use our expertise and knowledge in the field of video game development to make a groundbreaking novelty treatment a reality. Mathieu Ferland, senior producer at Ubisoft, said Mathille Frander.

"The development team at the Ubisoft Montreal Studio can create a fascinating and enjoyable treatment experience for those who need to treat patients with a lack of vision, and we are proud to be involved in a positive case where video game technology has a positive impact on society." ”
