MARTi is an easy to use application that can support any person who needs assistance to perform the steps required to complete a task. MARTi illustrates each the steps involved in a task completion by combining visual cues (photo, video) and sounds (audio).
This application is the result of a close collaboration between a team of researchers from the field of intellectual disability and pervasive developmental disorders (Self-Determination Support Technologies Research Chair – SDST) and Infologique Innovation Inc., a company that cares to contribute to the enhancement of its’ own society.
The application is officially supported by a services care provider organization (namely CRDITED-MCQ-IU) and the University of Quebec at Trois-Rivières.
MARTi was specifically tailored to the needs expressed by persons involved in field-test studies.
Although developed with people with intellectual disability or pervasive developmental disorder, MARTi can be used by any type of user to the extent that it is made to support them remembering and execute all required steps to achieve a relatively complex task (Alzheimer, traumatic brain injury, loss of autonomy, aging, ADHD ...), and this at home as well as at work or school.
