“…After every session, the carer was involved in the reviewing of the collected raw video data. This approach is in line with related research where we have developed a methodology named participative involvement through recursive reflections [6]; see also Sect. 3.1 in this paper concerning inclusive participation.…”

“…Intervention strategies by the facilitator are inherent in designing the interactive responsive environment where the interaction with the robotic system takes place. Previous work emphasizes the facilitator's role relative to participatory and recursive analysis of session data [6]. Informed input from caregivers and helpers as to the child's possible preferences increments the developing personal profile and assists the facilitator in understanding the child's engagement with the robotic system.…”

Children with severe physical disabilities have limited possibilities for joyful experiences and interactive play. Physical training and therapy to improve such opportunities for these children is often enduring, tedious and boring through repetition-and this is often the case for both patient and the facilitator or therapist. The aim of the study reported in this paper was to explore how children with a severe physical disability could use an easily accessible robotic device that enabled control of projected images towards achieving joyful experiences and interactive play, so as to give opportunities for use as a supplement to traditional rehabilitation therapy sessions. The process involves the capturing of gesture data through an intuitive non-intrusive interface. The interface is invisible to the naked eye and offers a direct and immediate association between the child's physical feed-forward gesture and the physical reaction (feedback) of the robotic device. Results from multiple sessions with four children with severe physical disability suggest that the potential of non-intrusive interaction with a multimedia robotic device that is capable of giving synchronized physical response offers additional opportunities, and motivated non-formal potentials in therapy and learning to supplement the field.

“…As the game was intended for a wide audience of children and adults with different impairments, users with limited motion range and physical disabilities had to be taken into consideration. This was addressed by implementing an adjustable activity zone to achieve the 'Zone of Optimized Motivation' (ZOOM) [15], supporting people with impairments to have playful experiences. The open-ended goal of the game was to activate three differently colored boxes that then colored the virtual setting around the participant, enabling the participants to also use the game as medium for creative expression.…”

“…The research explored serious games and creative expression (music-making, digital painting and robotics control) -all via unencumbered gesture using bespoke non-worn sensor apparatus. Furthermore, the research includes groundbreaking early work [9], in conceiving and defining non-formal learning and ludic engagement designs stressing a user-centered design approach to learning, cumulated in the development of dynamic pedagogical models [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. These models questioned existing traditional formal pedagogical models that increasingly are reflected upon by contemporary scholars as being redundant as advances in ICT evolve curricula, educational and therapeutically activities and strategies.…”

-Evolving from a mature body of research titled SoundScapes, this paper reports on a work-in-progress that is investigating the need that is evident for improved information and recommendation infrastructures to assist in healthcare intervention and communication (including apparatus and method). The need is due to increased ICT use and the potentials for positive treatment outcomes from informed decision-making. A challenge is security of sensitive data, however detailing this is beyond the scope of this paper. In line with this need, an evolving cloud-based collaboration infrastructure resource is reported where global networks of professional subscribers will have increasing access to specific profile data and recommendation strategies. The focus on this phase of the work is to network those using (or considering using) ICT in wellness/QOL, rehabilitation and habilitation. The resource is being built from real-world case studies and is envisioned as a developing "feed-in feed-out" entity where evidence-based findings are submitted and extracted via a secured 'gateway' by expert professional practitioners. The resource is considered an 'Internet of Things' model to also inform and consult families of people diagnosed with impairments or patients undergoing treatment. Recommended intervention apparatus include bespoke/custom systems as well as commercially available systems. 'In-action' and 'On-action' models for have emerged from the research. This means that therapists adopting ICT into their work have a wealth of prior studies to guide their choices of hardware, software and intervention method and analysis without having to wade through academic or scientific articles, papers and book chapters. Through dissemination of the concept at this early phase of development in establishing the resource, an open invitation for peers and related interested parties to critique, advise, and otherwise contribute toward optimal development and wide impact is offered.
