AI Article Synopsis

  • Relearning proper movement patterns is crucial for treating functional deficits, and motivation through real-time feedback is important for effective motor training.* -
  • The study aimed to enhance understanding of how visual feedback can assist exercises for the lower body, evaluating user perceptions from physicians, physiotherapists, and patients.* -
  • Results showed that recognition of body parts in feedback was only 55% on average, with clearer visuals and appealing designs yielding better comprehension and motivation.*

Article Abstract

Background: Relearning physiological movement patterns is a key factor to success in the treatment of functional deficits. Motivation to train sustainably is essential for successful motor re-education and can be promoted by instrumentally supported real-time feedback.

Objectives: Study findings should improve the understanding of real-time feedback visualization for exercises targeting the lower extremities.

Methods: A mixed-methods survey on recognition, comprehensibility, color scheme and shape of six real-time feedback prototype visualizations was conducted among three user groups (physicians, physiotherapists, and patients).

Results: The mean correct recognition of body regions visualized in the feedback was 55 %, ranging from 29 % to 74 %. Comprehensibility, color scheme and shape were best received for feedback with clear visual guidance, sympathetic and motivating color schemes and abstract visualizations of body regions.

Conclusion: Insights were gathered for the design, optimization, and customization of visualizations to develop a real-time feedback prototype.
