Abstract
The smart physical rehabilitation becomes a new reality and challenge regarding the technology adoption by the users and high costs. In this context, the paper presents a smart physical rehabilitation system that combines augmented reality serious games and wearable sensor network to improve the patient engagement during physical rehabilitation. The implemented system provides also health status assessment acquiring vital data to be analyzed by clinical professionals. The wearable sensing is based on the Simblee platform that captures kinematic and dynamic quantities associated with lower limb motion using an IMU as so as the muscular activation and cardiac activity. The Healthcare IoT compatibility is assured by an augmented reality platform based on iOS smart phone that communicates with wearable wireless sensor network and after primary processing of the data it uploads the analyzed in an AWS cloud based web platform.
