“…Such initiatives include developing gesture recognition technologies from computer vision (body scanner) and sensing technologies (ultrasound and inertial units) (Figure 3). They aim to control (by gestural interaction) augmented and virtual reality interfaces with gerontology [13] (mental health) applications and neurofunctional recovery therapies [2,8,10,11,18] not limited to those specialities or pathologies. Also, contributing to training kinesiology specialists with assistive technologies related to virtual reality, especially in physiotherapy, occupational therapy, physical education and medicine (orthopaedics and physiatrics) courses.…”
