The system is based on the information provided by a distance sensor connected to an Arduino board. The distance information is based on the position of the user’s hand, and it is then passed to six different action/reaction applications which offer motivation and engage users to train intentional motor movements of their upper body limbs and to improve their relationship with the environment.
