Cognitive impairments play a
large role in the lives of survivors of mild traumatic brain injuries who
are unable to return to their prior level of independence in their homes.
Computational support has the potential to enable these individuals to
regain control over some aspects of their lives. This research aims to
carefully seek out issues that might be appropriate for computational
support and to build enabling technologies that increase individuals'
functional independence in the home environment. Using a case-study
approach, we explore the needs and inform the design of a pacing aid for
an individual with a cognitive impairment whose quality of life was
negatively affected by her inability to pace herself during her morning
routine.
