Is it possible to design an app that make daily repetitive exercises more fun? For children with brain trauma these exercises are essential, yet there was no good app to support them in this task. So Joep Janssen, Real Thinks, Hoogstraat and Monkeybizniz decided to come up with a prototype to explore the possibilities.
The Case
The Hoogstraat Centre for Revalidation in Utrecht in cooperation with Realthinks BV developed an app for patients who suffer from acquired brain injury (ABI) to support them in their rehabilitation therapy. Although the app worked fine for adults, it just did not seem to spark the younger target audience. They turned to Monkeybizniz for expertise in designing for children.
Our Design
To better support children who suffer from acquired brain injury, Monkeybizniz designed a prototype for an app to better support them during their rehabilitation trajectory.
The prototype is improving on the existing app developed by the Hoogstraat Centre for Revalidation in Utrecht in cooperation with Realthinks BV.
The new version combines game mechanics with daily physiotherapy exercises and an engaging narrative to guide the target audience on their therapy trajectory.
