PRIME-VR2 – Personalised recovery through a multi-user environment: virtual reality for rehabilitation

For people struggling through rehabilitation, virtual reality (VR) environments show promise but several technical problems must first be solved. The EU-funded PRIME-VR2 project aims to develop a state-of-art digital environment for VR rehabilitation at home through a virtual gaming space that will provide proper stimulation and friendly competition. The treatment will concentrate on motor skills of the upper body (an arm, hand and finger movements). The VR environment will be customised through adaptive controllers and shaped individually for each user according to their condition. It will be a great step forward for European interactive technology in improving physical health and performance.
