Abstract

Technological progress made in the field of computer science with the passage of time has become ever-present in the lives of the majority of people. This form of progress can also be used in medical rehabilitation as an interactive game based physiotherapy. Physical therapy is always a big part of rehabilitation, but as time goes by, patients tend to get tired and demotivated due to repetitive and tedious exercises. It’s hard and time-consuming to book an appointment with a good physiotherapist. So, an interactive motion detection system with the help of Kinect can be a boon to this problem. It works as a mirror because it helps patients in the perception of moments offering a visual feedback. The use of interactive physiotherapy makes the treatment more encouraging, stimulating the human senses (mainly body movements)
