Abstract

In this paper, we propose a wrist rehabilitation support system using a smartphone app. There are several issues with the conventional wrist rehabilitation systems, primarily that there is no method for quantitatively evaluating whether it has been appropriately carried out or not, that it is difficult for doctors to observe the condition of patients at home, and that the content is often boring. In our system, using a smartphone means that we can easily introduce it to homes and have medical doctors observe the condition of patients by accessing their data on the cloud. We also aim to help patients maintain their motivation for rehabilitation by playing a game using their wrist and a smartphone.
