摘要：People who are blind or low vision need to follow activities routines for their mental and physical health to minimize the risk of suffering from bleeding in articulation but they have problems due to difficulties and inaccessibility of displacement. This paper introduces and evaluate a set of exercises to improve the bodily movement and stability using body tracking by Microsoft Kinect V2 and audio feedback. These exercises are composed of a sequence of different postures, has an audio feedback personalized to help people to understand each gestures and can correct them if it is not correct, and generates a summary graph to evaluate the success rate of exercises. To obtain the 3D joint coordinates from the depth sensor, we used the SDK V2.0 of the Microsoft Kinect. We use these coordinates to calculate the distances and angles between joints of interest firstly to position the user in the area field of the Kinect sensor, evaluate the different postures of movements of knees, elbows and shoulders, and detect the body balance if he is leaning and in which direction to avoid falling. These physical exercises have been evaluated to improve feasibility and feedback with persons who are blind or low vision.
