Age simulation:

Our age simulation suit makes it possible to simulate the typical changes and limitations of old age. The interaction of the individual components of the suit creates an effect that comes very close to the limitations of the sensomotor skills of old age. In this way, a new perspective can be discovered and experienced in a playful yet effective way. Through self-awareness, an intuitive understanding of the challenges of old age is created that could not be conveyed with theory alone. The suit offers a wide range of possible applications. These include, for example, raising awareness among care staff, training and further training of staff, product design or the development of age-appropriate environments, to name just a few possible applications.

The laboratory equipment includes An AgeMan-Premium suit and two AgeMan-Basic suits from AgeSuite Germany GmbH.
