MONITORING REHABILITATION PROGRESS IN PATIENTS THROUGH AUGMENTED
REALITY GAMES AND CLOUD COMPUTING
Abstract
The main purpose of this project present a conceptual cloud-based framework with and
augmented virtual reality known as ‘CRehab’ for support and management of rehabilitation
process for the patient. From the studies that have been carried out in the past it is very clear
that b rehabilitation, staff, patients, wards and families require a system which can be able to
handle personal, administration, communication and patient motivation process effectively.
To this end ‘CRehab’ employs cloud capabilities to address the first two concerns. The
motivation of rehabilitation patients is highly encouraged by the deployment of the virtual
rehabilitation environments with the exercises which stimulates the patients.. the main aim of
the project is to develop a feasible architecture for use in different types of rehabilitations,
irrespective of the environment, patient, environment or any other factor.
Key words: Rehabilitation, virtual reality, cloud computing, rehabilitation

Introduction
Clinical rehabilitation is usually conducted on a daily basis by determined patients and staff. This
research project will focus on the Augmented reality and cloud computing , and how they can
enhance the process of recovery, management and the collaborative relationship between the
patients and clinical staff. The constant improvement in technology has generated some
remarkable rehabilitation facilities ; Nevertheless, there is need for more research to be carried
out on staff communication, patient-therapist collaboration and subjective factors such as the
motivation for patients (Nguyen, 2017, p. 761).
This proposal introduces the design of the cloud –based framework to improve and simplify the
process of rehabilitation. This will be done by moving the computing resources such as reports,
patient’s data, motorizations, assessments, etc. to the cloud and through the provision of the
Augmented reality will give users appropriate interfaces to meet the needs of each
rehabilitation patient. The project contains details of how the framework will enhance the
collaboration between the patient and clinical staff through the utilization of the system to
motivate patient’s encouragements. Cloud services develop a distributive system which
makes the interaction between all the system users efficient, tis will include specialists,
patients, therapists and the families. The aim of this project is to design and improve the
