Overview

Program-Ace built an immersive VR rehabilitation app where a virtual trainer, Andy, guides patients through hand-mobility exercises with precise motion tracking, so recovery can continue at home and progress is captured for clinicians.

The challenge

The app had to make a real difference to treatment while staying medically sound, which meant capturing even small finger and wrist movements accurately for rehabilitation data, and being usable by elderly patients with no VR experience.

The solution

Program-Ace built a guided, motion-tracked VR rehabilitation experience.

A virtual trainer that guides users through hand-mobility exercises.
High-accuracy real-time hand and wrist motion tracking.
Multi-stage rehabilitation scenarios with progress tracking.
An intuitive interface for elderly and VR-inexperienced users.
Progress and performance data for clinicians.
Technology and approach

How we built it

Built in Unity and C# with VRTK on the Oculus Quest with VR gloves, the app tracks fine finger and wrist motion in real time and presents it through a guided virtual trainer, designed to be approachable for patients who have never used VR, and delivered on an accelerated timeline.
