“…In the context of education, serious games have been widely used for a wide range of purposes [6], such as making children learn while enjoying [7], helping them to develop social and adaptive skills [8], or improving professional education of people with cognitive disabilities [9], among others. In the context of health, games usually address topics such as exercise, rehabilitation, quality of life and advanced life support training [10,11].…”

In the medical context, designing and developing myoelectric prostheses has made it possible for patients to regain mobility lost due to amputations; however, their use requires intensive training. Serious games through multi-touch devices can serve as a complement to the activities carried out during face-to-face sessions with occupational therapists and physiotherapists, as a useful resource to engage patients, especially children, and make them enjoy training. In this paper, we describe our work to support the training of myoelectric prostheses through digital serious games. Firstly, we studied the needs of children with myoelectric prostheses and the way they perform rehabilitation. Secondly, we designed specific games to support training accordingly. Thirdly, we developed a system able to generate variations of these games dynamically, adapting the elements at each round to the needs and progress of each child. The interfaces are simple, friendly, and based on tablets to favor autonomy. Finally, we assessed the potential of the use of these games for rehabilitation. Specialists in Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Medicine and Special Education collaborated as experts; they agreed that SilverTouch is good for myoelectric prosthetic training and confirmed its potential to be widely used in this context.

“…The study [46] uses video game for 20 kids and result shows that students are motivated towards learning process, further need to observe AR and DGBL and game design principles need to be tested. The work [47] multi touch surface assists to improve concentration and impulse control, proper conclusions not taken. The study [48] uses robot to observe human behaviour and achieved 80% accuracy, need to remove some of the restrictions.…”

To solve the problem in early stage is more precious contribution for children life. Otherwise the disorder may cause further destruction in child brain. An activity of ADHD child is: carelessness, impulsive, and feverish. These activities may be common in other children too but for ADHD patients these activities are more severe and more often occurs. ADHD can arise problems at school, home, it may affect children learning ability, and child may not join with others. ADHD is one among many childhood syndromes. The paper summarises the different ADHD diagnosis methods and suggested treatments for the disorder.
