Who and where are we • Presenter: • Tonny Jæger, Development-physiotherapist and Master of Information Technology • From Funen hospital • Birgitte E Mathiessen • Peder Jest, • Niels E. Pedersen • From Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller Institute for Production Tech. University of Southern Denmark • Henrik Hautop Lund • From Entertainment Robotics • Thomas Klitbo • From MedCom • Lars Hulbæk
Once upon a time • In the summer 2000, professor Henrik Hautop Lund and Thomas Klitbo from the Maersk Institute started a collaboration with Kompan playground systems and equipment • Together they thougt out the idea ofbody games • from passive vertical soft- ware games • to active horizontal ”play- ware” games
From playing to training • If it is possible to make children move, why do we not try to use the same principles to make our patients train? • And maybe it is possible to be better to document the effect of various movements in the physioterapeutic treatment too? • Tonny,- try it out! ”We want to develop and test a prototype of a new rehabilitation tool”
Ideas + wishes to the prototype • Both floor and wall-based tiles • More light (direction) • Plain surface • Easy to model
Prototype development • The designer at work • The programmer at work
The prototype tiles • Both floor and wall-based • Magnetic connections • Plain surface • More light • Colour shift with heavier weight • Possibilities in direction making • Easy to model • No plugs • Magnetic and infrared connections • Easy to recharge
Some of the results from the fieldtrial • Fitness training with colourrace and stepper (>75% hrm) • Coordination training with colourrace at wall • Balance training with longstep • ”It´s a needed new individual training device • Competition is motivating • Further development is needed, e.g. • Easier to use for the patients • More possibilities for the therapist • Better reliability The whole report (in Danish) at http://www.sygehusfyn.dk/wm214159
