Augmented reality therapeutic movement display and gesture analyzer

An augmented reality device for displaying directions related to a therapeutic movement for a patient within an augmented reality environment comprising:

• a processor to:
• analyze information about a clinical movement of a therapist, captured using a movement capture apparatus, to determine a path of motion representative of at least a portion of the clinical movement;
• and
• automatically define a path region and a virtual target in an augmented reality environment overlaid on a real environment using the path of motion, the virtual target having a fixed position relative to an object in the real environment;
• and
• a display to:
• display, using an augmented reality device, the path region and the virtual target at the fixed position in the augmented reality environment, the fixed position located at an intended ending location of the path region.

A system comprising:

• a movement capture apparatus including a camera to capture information about a clinical movement of a therapist, and
• a processor to:
• analyze the information to determine a path of motion representative of at least a portion of the clinical movement;
• and
• automatically define a path region and a virtual target in an augmented reality environment overlaid on a real environment using the path of motion, the virtual target having a fixed position relative to an object in the real environment;
• and
• an augmented reality display device to display the path region and the virtual target at the fixed position in the augmented reality environment, the fixed position located at an intended ending location of the path region.

At least one machine-readable medium including instructions for displaying augmented reality clinical movements, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:

• analyze information about a clinical movement of a therapist, captured using a movement capture apparatus, to determine a path of motion representative of at least a portion of the clinical movement;
• automatically define a path region and a virtual target in an augmented reality environment overlaid on a real environment using the path of motion, the virtual target having a fixed position relative to an object in the real environment;
• and
• display, using an augmented reality device, the path region and the virtual target at the fixed position in the augmented reality environment, the fixed position located at an intended ending location of the path region.
