    (СДУ хабаршысы - 2020, 2020) Adilkhan Sh. ; Alimanova M.
    Abstract. Nowadays, almost all areas of activity are switching to digital format. Medicine is no exception. Treatment is often not the most pleasant process, but it is certainly necessary. In medicine, the use of VR technologies is very popular. They help patients get distracted and immerse themselves in a world where they restore their health during the game. Treatment in the form of games is often more effective than traditional treatment. In this article, we have studied the methods of gamification of rehabilitation after certain diseases. Also, we developed a game prototype for the rehabilitation of hands using Leap Motion technology. Modern games are becoming more and more perfect in terms of game mechanics and content, which makes it possible to use them not only in the gaming industry, but also in the field of medicine.

    Hands, as the most dexterous part of our body, are of vital importance to our everyday life. However, since hands are extensively used in nearly all tasks, they are exposed in more dangerous environment than any other parts. Overwork, injury and geratic complications, such as stroke can all cause hand function, totally or partially, which directly diminish the q uality of life. Unpleasant effects caused by trauma and overwork to hands results with immediate hand rehabilitation. Trainings for patients’ rehabilitations are normally goes in rehabilitation center in hospitals, with getting some physiotherapy for han ds, making some exercises and etc. However all this may bore patients and not to motivate to sooner recovery. The Leap Motion controller is a small device that senses consumer gestures and is aimed to enlarge a user’s interactive experience with their computer. Using infrared sensors, it is able to collect data about the position and motions of a user’s hands. This allows to use leap motion in different purposes like development of children’s intellect, having fun with playing virtual reality games and etc. One more example for effective usage of such device is in the purpose of medicine.
