We are at the Care For Children With Special Needs Society is the first association to implement the sensory room project.
The sensory room aims to increase the audio, sensory and visual capabilities of children.
It also serves to increase the concentration ability and the eye coordination, as well as the relaxation and release of the physical stress.
This sensory room serves several classes.
First, normal people who suffer from psychological pressure and stress, it helps them relax and release the physical pressure.
Second, children with disabilities who suffer from Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Hyper Activity, and ConcentrWation Problems.
The sensory room incorporates many facilities that develop and stimulate the senses in children.
The facilities are:
Interactive Floor (irisFLOOR): it is an interactive projected screen on the floor that reacts to the movement of the child.
It is used to increase the eyes coordination and enhance the concentration in addition to providing entertainment.
Interactive Lights System: it allows controlling the light system in the room: this include the light color, intensity, and movement speed.
This system is controlled via a touch screen that is easy to use by children.
For example: blue light that is accompanied with soft music is used to help children suffering from Hyper Activity to relax.
Interactive Sound System: it delivers a compound experience that associates a sound with an image.
This system facilitates conveying information to kids with learning and speech difficulties easily and quickly.
For example: learning the animal sounds is accomplished by clicking on the animal’s picture via the touch screen, consequently the child can hear the animal’s voice.
The same as applied for learning the alphabets.
Oil Projection System : it helps children to relax and concentrate, by display oil blobs on the walls in association with special rhythmic tunes.
Fiber-optic Wall: it delivers a synergistic sensory experience for the children, especially the ones suffering from sensory problems, Cerebral Palsy, and Autism.
This is accomplished using various visual effects.
Iris is the only Palestinian company specialized in interactive solutions, the sensory room in Nablus Rehabilitation Center marks our second undertaking of its kind,

The concept of Sensory Rooms is a new concept worldwide.
Iris was able to implement such rooms after a number of studies and experiments over the course of a year with the collaboration of specialized centers and relevant stakeholders.
