4.rehAbilityThis is a series of games which recognise patient physical movements and can trans-mit them to doctors and specialists in rehabili-tation care. In this way, the patient needing rehabilitation therapy is able to be treated at home and can involve friends and family in the rehabilitation process. In the case of cognitive impairments, these immersive virtual experiences can support cognitive rehabilitation and help the patients resume their normal daily activities.

Chronic diseases and cognitive impair-ments can severely impact and restrict the lives of patients. For those affected, everyday life can be a big challenge that they and the people around them gradually have to learn to deal with. Typically, one of the major problems in rehabilitation is that patients are often not motivated enough to adhere strictly to long-term therapies.

imaginary, the developers of these solutions, have been working for several years on the development of Serious Games and other innovative eHealth solutions which can significantly support the lives of such patients. Their solutions help people of all ages to inde-pendently cope with the challenges of every-day life, despite their condition and encourage them to continue with their therapies.

To fulfil these objectives, imaginary work close-ly with doctors and patients to create state of the art applications using the latest technolo-gies that meet the demands, needs and expec-tations of all the stakeholders.
