Nowadays by advancement of display technology, any contents can be presented to walls, floors and ceilings.In the near future, people will be able to display favorite contents inside their private house, using this technology.In this study, we examine the application of this new display technology for healthcare.Exercise support program was picked as the experimental application, because of urgent needs to reduce medical cost of our society.To induce motivation for exercise, Microsoft Kinect was used to detect the player's motion and a short focus projector was used for presenting virtual space and balls in front of the player.The virtual ball is thrown and the player is asked to catch the ball.Since the ball doesn't fly towards the player, he must move to left or right, and unconsciously the player do exercise.
