REPORT SYSTEM FOR PHYSIOTHERAPEUTIC AND REHABILITATIVE VIDEO GAMES
First Claim
1. A kinetic rehabilitation system comprising:
- a kinetic sensor comprising a motion-sensing camera; and
a computing device comprising;
(a) a communication module;
(b) a non-transient memory comprising a stored set of values of rehabilitative gestures each defined by a time series of spatial relations between a plurality of theoretical body joints, wherein each rehabilitative gesture comprises gesture phases including at least an initial gesture phase, a mid-gesture phase and a final gesture phase, and wherein each time series of spatial relations comprises;
initial spatial relations, mid-gesture spatial relations and final spatial relations, and(c) a hardware processor configured to;
(i) automatically translate a therapy plan provided for a patient to a video game level, (ii) continuously receive a recorded time series of frames from said motion-sensing camera, wherein each frame comprises a three-dimensional position of each of a plurality of body joints of a patient, (iii) convert the three-dimensional position of each captured frame to spatial relations between body limbs and/or joints, (iv) compare, in real time, at least a portion of the spatial relations between body limbs and/or joints detected in the recorded time series of frames with the time series of spatial relations, to detect at least an initial gesture phase, a mid-gesture phase and a final gesture phase for each a rehabilitative gesture performed by the patient, (v) detect a discrepancy between the rehabilitative gesture performed by the patient and a corresponding one of said stored set of values of rehabilitative gestures, (vi) log data pertaining to said discrepancy and to said rehabilitative gesture performed by said patient, and (vii) send said data to a therapist via said communication module and provide a report to said therapist.
