Juego electrónico para el desarrollo de la capacidad motriz y cognitiva utilizando tecnología Kinect para niños de 4 a 5 años

Abstract

At present, technology has presented a great advance in various aspects of society for which education has not been the exception, the same that has changed the way of teaching and learning. For this reason, today children are called digital natives thanks to the fact that technology plays a fundamental role in the educational development of children.

In the development environment, it has sought to better introduce the use of technology, managing to develop applications with the help of external devices such as the Kinect, which through its use has generated useful projects for different social areas, as well as It is education, industry, health, etc., in addition, the need to involve Kinect technology for the use of motor and cognitive development in children from 4 to 5 years of age is also born since its early stimulation is very important to improve the development of future in work environments, based on these needs, this proposed project was born where the use of the aforementioned technology for cognitive and motor improvement in a group of children with ages of 4 to 5 years was studied, the same individuals are taken as a reference since, based on the researched bibliography, it is the age where many aspects of psychomotor and cognitive development are consolidated.

The objective of the project is to develop a game for boys and girls in which they must use some part of their body and simulate taking an object to represent a number, which is the result of a previous summation, which can be visualized in the space. which should be caught as many times as possible avoiding the wrong figures represented by two different numbers than the sum already mentioned, the mathematical operation represented is the addition with values from one to ten which will help us to stimulate both the concept of the numbering in relation to the quantity, thanks to the game we can measure the number of hits and misses either in the motor and cognitive part of the child who uses the game.
