The aim of this study was to determine if the results of activities performed using specially developed serious games for physical rehabilitation could be used as an indicator of the natural maturation and decline of motor control in healthy participants. Eighty-one participants (19 children (5-15 years old), 40 adults (18-65 years old) and 22 aged subjects (60-88 years old) participated in this study. Motions performed were recorded using the Kinect sensor. Three different exercises embedded in the games were used to assess upper limb, trunk and lower limb control. The trial duration and accuracy, measures of gross motor function and fine motor control, respectively, were computed for each participant. ANOVA tests shows statistically significant differences between the three groups for duration (53±15, 27±10 and 119±30s for children, adults and elderly subjects respectively) and accuracy (87±5, 89±10 and 70±8% for children, adults and elderly subjects respectively). The slopes of the curves that approximated the evolution of the performance over various ages are coherent with previous studies about motor control development and physiological decline. The proposed solution, i.e. serious games rehabilitation exercises coupled to motion analysis, seems to be an interesting tool to assess global motor function. Further studies are needed to study the influence of pathologies on the studied parameters.
本研究的目的是确定使用专门开发的用于身体康复的严肃游戏所进行活动的结果，是否可以用作健康参与者运动控制自然成熟和衰退的指标。81名参与者（19名儿童（5 - 15岁）、40名成年人（18 - 65岁）和22名老年人（60 - 88岁））参与了本研究。使用Kinect传感器记录所执行的动作。游戏中嵌入的三种不同练习用于评估上肢、躯干和下肢控制。分别计算了每位参与者的试验持续时间和准确性，以及总体运动功能和精细运动控制的指标。方差分析测试显示，三组在持续时间（儿童、成年人和老年人分别为53±15、27±10和119±30秒）和准确性（儿童、成年人和老年人分别为87±5、89±10和70±8%）方面存在统计学上的显著差异。近似不同年龄段表现演变的曲线斜率与先前关于运动控制发展和生理衰退的研究一致。所提出的解决方案，即结合运动分析的严肃游戏康复练习，似乎是评估整体运动功能的一个有趣工具。需要进一步研究病理情况对所研究参数的影响。
