Insufficient motivation of people afflicted with neck pain to adhere to the prescribed exercise regimen may delay their recovery. Accordingly, in this VR Snake, we propose a system that motivates the users to perform neck exercises by engaging them in a popular Snake Game within virtual reality (VR) environment. The system measures the users’ neck movements via a few static and dynamic kinematic tests and a novel VR Snake battle, tailored to the neck range of motion of each individual user.
The game is designed to make the users perform rehabilitative neck movements according to the prescribed exercise regimen while playing.
