Title
Fall Prevention Serious Games for Elderly People Using RGBD Devices
Abstract
Falls are a serious problem among older adults. Many research studies have reported that risk falls can be minimized with exercising and physical activity. This paper proposes two prototype games that include tasks for balance and postural control for elderly people. It can be integrated in rehabilitation programs in both clinics and home settings. The physiotherapist has preliminarly validated the proposed games and a clinical trial to determine their effectiveness is planned as a further work.
