Kinect Xbox 360 as a therapeutic modality for children with cerebral palsy in a school environment: A preliminary study

Abstract

Low cost video games based on motion capture are potential tools in the rehabilitation context in children with CP. Our Kinect Xbox 360 protocol has showed improvements in balance and ADL in CP participants in a school environment, but further studies are need to validate the potential benefits of these video game systems as a supplement for rehabilitation of children with CP.
