Abstract

This paper describes the development of an interactive virtual tool, in order to encourage the ability to crawl in infants. The virtual environment in the system is implemented with the graphics engine Unity3D. The application is tested in the MagixBox platform with a high brightness projector. The environment has colorful and novel designs which are projected on a suitable floor space. User can interact with the projection due to the mapping that makes the infrared sensor and HD 2D camera in MagixBox. The sensor will continually scanning the objects that are close to the projection. The system helps in the process of activities record and saving important data for the assessment by the specialist.
