THE CHALLENGE
A big problem in the rehabilitation process is the home exercises that the doctor gives to the patients, in some cases because of how were made or skipped the patients never get a full recovery.
​
While there have been several developments and projects trying to solve the importance of home exercises routines during the rehabilitation process, one of the most fundamental parts of the process to been able to complete the rehabilitation.
Some of this solutions tried solving the problem in different ways approaching to the solution but they comprise the visual interface and experience of the user making them so complicated to use and understand them, it remains problematic in the success rate of the exercises because of the lack of companion at the moment of performing them at home and giving live feedback whether the exercise. was performed precisely or poorly
THE SOLUTION
REHAB is a mixture of the mobile platform and a camera with a LIDAR sensor. This combination allows patients to be observed during the entire procedure. As soon as an exercise is not performed correctly, the patient will be informed via the red light of the camera and at the same time receives a notification on the mobile platform that the exercise has not been performed correctly.
Furthermore, the system shows the patient how to do the exercise correctly, in order to avoid any injuries. All movements are individually adapted by the physiotherapist to the patient on the basis of his medical history. The respective training routine can be viewed in the mobile platform, where the patient has the transparency of all his exercises.
