Summary:This research is made to aim bettering the current hand rehabilitation methodology. It is developed expressly to motivate the patients to play, as their hand is getting healthier. The system consists of a hand motion capturing device, and the game control system, that is using dedicated processing algorithms and aims to register hand movement, and also the progress that the user can make over a period of time. The game it uses is a fairly simple one that does in fact motivate the user to play longer rounds, all the more reason to attend which will always result in positive feedback from the patient.
