Title :
Shark punch: A virtual reality game for aquatic rehabilitation
Abstract :
We present a novel underwater VR game - Shark Punch - in which the user must fend off a virtual Great White shark with real punches in a real underwater environment. This poster presents our underwater VR system and our iterative design process through field tests with a user with disabilities. We conclude with proposed usability, accessibility, and system design guidelines for future underwater VR rehabilitation games.
