Abstract Skyfarer is a mixed reality shoulder exercise game developed for prevention and treatment of shoulder pain for individuals aging with spinal cord injury. We are adapting a shoulder exercise protocol that has been evaluated in a randomized clinical trial [Mulroy et al. 2011]. This demonstration will showcase a second-generation integrated exercise hardware and software system. The system consists of an adjustable metal rig outfitted with GameTrak sensors that are attached to interchangeable Thera-Bands and free weights. The rig can accommodate individuals with various types of manual wheelchairs and can be adjusted for arm length. The GameTrak sensors provide three-dimensional movement data to the calibration and exercise software application that was developed in Unity Engine 3.5. Skyfarer has emerged after iterating numerous prototypes that incorporated individual elements of a shoulder exercise protocol using a first-generation metal rig [Gotsis et al. 2012]. Skyfarer requires calibration of the game to the physical dimensions and muscle strength of individual players. Player profiles can be stored and the number of required repetitions per exercise can be manually adjusted before playing. Skyfarer 0.5a incorporates the following parts of the exercise protocol: external rotation, rowing, diagonal pull-down and vertical lift exercises. This version has been evaluated in a biomechanical study conducted at Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center. The virtual environment immerses players into an adventure inspired by Pre-Colombian mythology inspired by the landscapes of South America. With each exercise, players prepare, propel and lift their vessel into water or air, collecting energy that can be used during breaks between exercise sets. Skyfarer 0.5b includes Microsoft Kinect as input for free-form movement segments of the game, such as drawing and improved calibration, animation and movement cuing.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
