Play4Physio: Supporting Physical Therapy of Children with Hemophilia

Published: 11 July 2022 Publication History

Abstract

Play4Physio is an Android mobile application that allows a player to control games with body movements, recognized through the mobile device camera. It has been specifically designed with the aim of increasing the adherence to the rehabilitation plan by children with hemophilia. Differently from existing exergames, which need to be specifically designed and developed, Play4Physio is compatible with most games that are already available on Google Play Store, effectively transforming them into exergames.
