Impact of augmented reality on sports performance of disabled

Abstract

Physical inactivity is a major 21st century public health problem for people with disabilities. The practice of sport in an augmented reality environment appears to be an interesting alternative to promote physical practice for people with disabilities. In this article, our research study will be based on the one hand on the impact and the capacity to increase motivation in rehabilitation by augmented reality (AR) with this population and on the other hand on the degree of acceptability of physical activity (PA) using avatars modeled in three dimensions (3D).
