Game-based method and system for physical rehabilitation

A game-based method for physical rehabilitation, the method comprising:

• authenticating, via processing circuitry, a user with authentication information input through a communication interface;
• identifying, using the processing circuitry, therapeutic movements by referencing a look-up table stored in a memory, the therapeutic movements being prescribed for the user or associated with a diagnosis of a predetermined physical condition;
• obtaining, using the processing circuitry, a user rehabilitation status stored in the memory;
• generating, using the processing circuitry, a game based on the therapeutic movements and the user status wherein the game includes controlling browsing of a map by detecting the therapeutic movements performed by the user;
• providing, via communication circuitry, the game to the user;
• receiving, via the communication circuitry, a data stream from a motion-sensing device that monitors an actual movement of the user in correspondence to the therapeutic movements;
• analyzing, using the processing circuitry, the data stream to calculate information metrics that are associated with the correspondence of the actual movements to the therapeutic movements;
• and
• updating the user rehabilitation status based on the information metrics.
