  • Abstract
    This demo presents a suite of serious Kinect™ - based games for rehabilitation. The game embodies three metaphors and corresponding game mechanics, for three exercise movements: elbow flexion and extension (fisherman), shoulder abduction and adduction (moon spaceship), and knee flexion and extension (the trail of the penguin). Conceived to support sport-injury rehabilitation regimens, the games guide the players through their prescribed rehabilitation exercise at home.
