Kinect Based System and Serious Game Motivating Approach for Physiotherapy Assessment and Remote Session Monitoring

Open Access

Abstract

This paper describes a framework focused on being a health monitoring platform as well as a source of entertainment for physiotherapy patients, particularly stroke survivors. Using the Microsoft Kinect sensor a serious game captures 3D data during the patient’s session and sends it to a server. Through a web application these data can be further visualized by the physiotherapists on their assessments. Moreover, this framework intends to be a useful and effective tool for remote physiotherapy sessions allowing for a considerable cost reduction. Experimental results related to arms and shoulders rehabilitation are included in this paper.
