Abstract
This paper deals with the development of the content of Activity of Daily Life (ADL) based on VR (virtual reality) for cognitive function training for the elderly. The proposed ADL content has been developed focusing on a feedback technique based on performance analysis unlike in the existing VR-based cognitive training content wherein the customized training management based on performance evaluation was difficult. Experiments were conducted with 30 elderly people in the welfare center for 3 months. As a result of the effectiveness evaluation, the proposed ADL content showed higher results in all aspects of immersion, satisfaction, and performance. It is expected that user departure from existing ADL content will be prevented, and various artificial intelligence researches will be carried out to improve the technology accuracy to provide customized difficulty which is an important factor.

Summary
As the average life span of people has been significantly prolonged, the incidence of geriatric diseases is rapidly increasing. In a keen competition environment, the reaction to excessive stress and anxiety felt by modern people stimulates and abuses the brain, causing a cognitive decline like the initial symptoms of dementia [1,2,3,4]. Modern medicine suggests coordinated motions based on exercise in a way that is effective for improving cognitive function which leads to the development of game content. It is necessarily important to develop game content which includes cooperative motions based on judgment, memory, reaction, and concentration which are representative cognitive functions related to dementia. Despite many studies, identifying the causes of such diseases can be difficult due to the complexity of the brain; there are no clear treatments [5]
