Exergaming | To strengthen the elderly

8D Games and the UMCG have combined their strengths to create a serious game for the elderly to help prevent injuries. In this game the elderly have to maintain their balance while shifting their weight from the left leg to the right leg in front of a Kinect. The Kinect detects the movement of the player, and when executed correctly, the ice skater will start to move in-game. Along the way the players will have to dodge ice holes and duck for bridges to make the game more exciting. The best part is - This game can be played in the comfort of your own home! The results of the players will be saved and sent to their physical therapists or doctor. This way the attending physician can track progress. The game will save a lot of travelling back and forth to the hospital, doctor and/or physical therapist. And let's not forget, it's a fun way to deal with the exercises.
