Interactive activities to enhance the quality of care and wellbeing
OMi projectors have been used in aged care since 2005 in the UK to enhance sensory stimuli for residents living with dementia and other disabilities or to provide a social interactive outlet. Sensory Wizard has been the exclusive supplier to aged care in Australia since 2020. We are delighted to hear of profound examples of residents living with dementia responding positively to the interactive programs. Not only does it help those living with dementia, but it also brings the joy of movement, entertainment and comradery to all residents.

The OMi projectors are motion activated so a slight movement will activate the game. OMi’s interactive projector systems are designed with games, music and social activities which respond to gestures and movement from users.
A dedicated team of engineers, designers and health-care specialists have created a bespoke range of products that provide meaningful activities for all ages and abilities to encourage movement, active participation and shared enjoyment.
These games are completely editable which means you are able to insert a residents’ personal preferences and life story into the games and activities ,
The inter-generational appeal of this system was pivotal in OMi being awarded the National Dementia Care Outstanding Product Award in 2018 in the UK.
