Before the virtual reality fire, body feeling was once one of the hot topics of discussion. At the time, Microsoft's Kinect peripherals were originally designed to further expand the Xbox's gaming capabilities, while allowing players to easily control the game's characters through the body.
However, after the fire, Kinect's shortcomings have become increasingly prominent. For example, there is no high-level game that matches it. The user experience in reality is not perfect. It is a less useful camera for players. After a series of routs, Microsoft closed its studio for interactive TV content for Kinect in October 2014.
However, although Kinect is far less competitive than its competitors in the game, Kinect seems to find its own value outside the game market.
RespondWell is a medical technology startup that allows Kinect to use its heat. This is a company focused on remote rehabilitation, founded in 2011. Shortly after Kinect released the official driver, RespondWell also took a look at the prospect of physical fit.
In reality, it is not an easy task to let patients adhere to the rehabilitation course every day, especially when the patient has been discharged from the hospital. However, if you do not adhere to rehabilitation or the standard action is not standard, it will increase the patient's secondary risk and re-admission risk, leaving behind sequelae and so on. RespondWell is a platform based on interactive physics rehabilitation. Through Kinect, doctors, physiotherapists, etc. can provide patients with a richer telemedicine rehabilitation experience and reduce costs.
Rehabilitation training is also to be done happily, and the popular gamification scheme RespondWell has also been applied to their systems. When users log in, they can choose matching music, digital coach and virtual reality 3D environment. The system will ask users a series of questions, such as basic personal information and pain level. After the official start, the patient gets the points by performing the correct action. The system encourages users to constantly challenge and achieve higher scores than records. There is also a leaderboard that records the scores of users and friends.
Points can be used to redeem new training music, virtual coaching and 3D environments. If you have enough points, you can even redeem the real products and services. This makes RespondWell as interesting and challenging as a real game.
The digital coach on the screen will accurately tell the user what to do. During the exercise, the coach will constantly correct the user's movements. Just like the personal training of the gym. Kinec's sensors record the user's training process and feed this information back to the user's full-time doctor or therapist.
The doctor or therapist assigned to the user will track the user's planned completion. If the user has completed the current rehabilitation plan, the doctor will also develop the next training. If the user wants to communicate with their doctor, it can be done through any browser or RespondWell's home system, or they can access their workout program at any time.
RespondWell's original solution, called Fitness@Home, helps the elderly to rehabilitate; the new program, called Therapy@Home, extends the range of rehabilitation to patients undergoing hip and knee replacement surgery. The change in name can also be seen as a further step in the scope of RespondWell's business.
The data shows that the typical patients who need to replace the hip and knee joints are around 60 years old. RespondWell hopes that their solution will allow people to exercise more, so that patients with osteoarthritis can postpone or cancel surgery. But the company's COO and co-founder John Grispon admits that their plans don't apply to everyone. At the time of operation, users need Wi-Fi, and therapists and doctors also need to confirm whether their patients are suitable for remote rehabilitation.
At this year's HIMSS16 conference, RespondWell and Philips reached a cooperation. The cooperation is mainly for the daily exercise of the elderly, providing an easy-to-understand and detailed display program for the elderly, allowing the elderly to exercise without leaving the house.
However, Philips is not the exclusive partner of RespondWell. In 2015, RespondWell and a company called Sensoria reached a cooperation. The company's products are smart socks that monitor pace and balance, and can be combined with RespondWell's system to collect user data—just like using Kinect—to analyze each user's recovery trajectory. As time increases, the number of users increases, and RespondWell can optimize the algorithm to provide the most effective preventive or rehabilitation exercise prescription for user recommendations.
Of course, RespondWell is not the only company that does physical rehabilitation, and Reflexion Health does the same thing. In November 2015, the FDA issued a license to bring Reflexion Health's Vera system to market. The Vera system is a product that uses Kinect to physically treat patients. Vera mainly uses body feeling to help patients achieve musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Unlike RespondWell's corporate partnership, Reflexion Health chose to work with some state clinics and rehabilitation centers.
Monkeypox is a viral zoonosis (a virus transmitted tothose seen in the past in smallpox patients, typically-presents clinically with fever, rash and swollen lymphnodes and may lead to a range of medical complications.It is caused by the monkeypox virus which belongs totheorthopoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family.Thereare two clades of monkeypox virus:the West Africanclade and the Congo Basin (Central African) clade.Theoname monkeypoxoriginates from the initial discovery ofthe virus in monkeys in a Danish laboratory in 1958.Thefirst human case was identified in a child in the Demo-cratic Republic of the Congo in 1970.
