    Area of Science:

    • Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Human-Computer Interaction
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Interactive technologies enhance rehabilitation therapy effectiveness and engagement.
    • Existing therapeutic gaming platforms can be improved with adaptive systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To integrate and evaluate a haptic/biometric-based (HBB) Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment (DDA) system into a therapeutic gaming platform.
    • To assess the impact of real-time DDA on patient engagement and preference during rehabilitation exercises.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed an HBB-DDA system adapting game and haptic difficulty based on real-time biometric data and performance.
    • Integrated the HBB-DDA system into the enAblegames platform utilizing body tracking.
    • Conducted a comparative study with 11 participants assessing experiences with and without DDA.

    Main Results:

    • A significantly higher preference for games with DDA was observed (36% vs. 7% without DDA).
    • In a single-game scenario, preference for DDA-enhanced games increased by 50%.
    • The HBB-DDA system demonstrated potential for personalized therapy adaptation.

    Conclusions:

    • Haptic/biometric-based Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment shows promise in making rehabilitation therapy more engaging and personalized.
    • This adaptive technology has the potential to improve patient experience and therapeutic outcomes.
    • Further research is warranted to fully explore the impact and applications of HBB-DDA in rehabilitation.
