Research collaboration between UNSW and Prince of Wales Research Institution. Game to aid balance rehabilitation in the elderly using Wii Fit.

Our team attended some of their rehab classes to understand and familiarise ourselves with the suitable exercises. We interviewed the patients to find out what sort of games they like as well as the things that they wish they could do if not for the disability. Combining our user research with the interactivity of Wii we designed a game with the idea of mobility and social interaction whilst doing rehabilitation. We also conducted regular focus group and game tests with patients to ensure usability among the elderly with computers and that user goals are met.
