“SisyFox” is a multidimensional game. With a 4 ft. large stability ball as input medium it stimulates arm, shoulder girdle and torso muscles as well as trains motion sequences and is on top a lot of fun!
The ball-bearing, huge ball connects the real world with the digital world in the most intuitive way. Rotating the ball controls the digital character which is forced to roll an immense boulder up a hill, according to the Greek mythology “Sisyphus”.
To avoid losing the ball on steep hillsides and narrow paths, the connection between visual and motor motion control, intramuscular and intermuscular coordination as well as balance, speed and persistence are required!
Through its multimedia interaction, SisyFox can train cognitive and neurological skills as part of the medical therapy and can be used in preventive, curative and physical therapy. Whether in the physiological practice to treat shoulder, arm as well as cervical and spinal syndromes or the occupational therapy to support visual-motor und psychomotor skills.
SisyFox' priority purpose for patients is fun, providing vitalization and long motivation during the treatment!
