Project Fizio by the students of Manav Rachna
The project Fizio has been developed by Veerpal Sharma, alumna, MRIU and Divyanshu Varshney, final year student, MRU, under the mentorship of Mr. Roopam Sharma (Team- Spiro Studios). This project addresses the problems of more than a billion people who are suffering from disability as well as the ones seeking physiotherapy help.
Fizio is an easy-to-use virtual rehabilitation platform designed to aid the rehabilitation process which tracks patients’ progress. It aims to make physiotherapy fun and convenient by transforming existing physical therapy exercises into video games and uses Microsoft’s Kinect sensor to track and assess patient’s compliance. Designed with physical and occupational therapists, each exercise and activity is programmed to maximize recovery in a safe environment. The cognitive and motor activity required in these 3D-full body motion sensing games makes the entire process engaging, keeping patients fit, active and lively. This will lead to a reduction of rehab session costs, flexibility of times, reduce added injuries during transportation and also allows for live chat access to seek medical assistance anytime.
In addition, Fizio can also be used as a networking tool to share experiences. The physicians and therapists can follow-up on the patient’s improvement online via. Fizio.
