Abstract

The wireless gyration air mouse is a hand-held commercial computer mouse device that embedded MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) gyro sensor, which can measure the rotation, angle and speed of the wrist or elbow. The purpose of this study was to explore whether ap-plying a gyration air mouse combined with preferred environmental stimulation would engage two people with disabilities who are obese and lack of exercises in walking actively.
