Inspiration
One of our teammates had joined a basketball team in the school and have broken his leg and cannot walk for a month. He had a very bad experience in the rehabilitation process since it is too boring. This gives us an idea to gamify this process and to make it more interesting to everyone.
What it does
Our project is consist of motion tracking and virtual reality technologies to provide an immersive experience to the patients, and also could collect data and visualize on the front end to help the therapist conduct analysis.
How I built it
We used Node.js and MongoDB for the back-end, EJS and bootstrap for front-end webpage, unity and oculus rift for the game application.
Challenges I ran into
We have a hard time to make each component communicate with each other, we've done that eventually by using RESTful API and Websocket.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We are proud of the complexity of the system we have made in such a short time.
What I learned
Personally I have learend a lot in terms of real time communication.
What's next for step by step
Helping people having a better life with our technology is always our vision. We would like to keep focusing on this project after the unihack and provide our application to hospital and rehabilitation center.
