We are in the late development phase of a virtual kitchen for our brain injury
clients here. While it won't be used so much for actual physical re-training,
it will work on placement of self within the environment, safety issues, etc.
Our main focus is the cognitive re-training necessary for the
development of independent ADL skills. We should have a model ready in about
a month.
