Resumen
The left-handed people represent approximately 15% of the world’s population, being a minority group, which has had to adapt to the use of objects designed for right-handed people. This phenomenon is also extrapolated to the industrial sector, where these persons is forced to make movements of force and coordination when using machinery not designed for them. This work proposes the implementation of a platform consisting of two sections: the first one uses the Edinburgh handedness inventory to determine the laterality degree of a person and the level of risk of physical injury. The second section implements a virtual rehabilitation routine, through a mini-game implemented in Unity and uses the Kinect game controller for motion capture. The platform aims to improve the quality of life of left-handed people working in the industrial sector, implementing an easy-to-use solution, which can be used at the business or personal level.
