“…With respect to hardware usability, the discontinuation of the commonly used Thalmic Myo Gesture Control armband [9,13,20], means there is now a lack of low-cost, easy to use EMG sensors for home use. Of the commercially-available dry EMG options suitable for game-based training, almost all require sensors to be accurately positioned using adhesives.…”

“…Serious games have been shown to enhance the outcome of movement rehabilitation after stroke or cerebral palsy [1,2]. Computer games have also been researched for upper-limb prosthetic control training since the early 1990s [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. While the field has received considerably more attention over recent years, it has yet to succeed in finding general proof for successful transfer of training myoelectric control in the games to an increase in prosthetic control ability [15].…”

“…As such, current prosthetic training games revolve around two core themes: the engagement of the player [7,8,12,14,[16][17][18][19][20] and the skill transfer from the game to prosthetic use [15,20,21]. These two objectives are pursued with two types of myo-games: 1) games that are based on existing game platforms with input adjusted to the electromyogram (EMG) signals [4,6] and 2) completely novel games around specific training goals [9,20].…”

Background: Serious games have been investigated for their use in multiple forms of rehabilitation for decades. The rising trend to use games for physical fitness in more recent years has also provided more options and garnered more interest for their use in physical rehabilitation and motor learning. In this paper, we report the results of an opinion survey of serious games in upper limb prosthetic training. Objective: This study investigates and contrasts the expectations and preferences for game based prosthetic rehabilitation of people with limb difference and researchers. Methods: Both participant groups answered open and closed questions as well as a questionnaire to assess their user types. The distribution of the user types was compared with a Pearson′s χ2 test against a sample population. The data was analysed with the thematic framework method; answers fell within the themes of usability, training, and game design. Researchers shared their views on current challenges and what could be done to tackle these. Results: A total of 14 people with limb difference and 12 researchers took part in this survey. The open questions resulted in an overview of the different views on prosthetic training games between the groups. The user types of people with limb difference and researchers were both significantly different from the sample population with χ2=12.31 and χ2=26.50, respectively. Conclusions: We found that the respondents show a general willingness and tentative optimism towards the topic, but also acknowledge hurdles limiting the adoption of these games by both clinics and users. Results indicate a noteworthy difference between researchers and limb different people in their game preferences, which could lead to design choices that do not represent the target audience. Furthermore, focus on long-term in-home experiments is expected to shed more light onto the validity of games in upper limb prosthetic rehabilitation.

In virtual prosthetic training research, serious 1 games have been investigated for over 30 years. However, 2 few game design elements are used and assessed for their 3 effect on the voluntary adherence and repetition of the 4 performed task. We compared two game-based versions 5 of an established myoelectric-controlled virtual prosthetic 6 training task with an interface without game elements of 7 the same task [for video, see (Garske, 2022)]. Twelve limb-8 intact participants were sorted into three groups of com-9 parable ability and asked to perform the task as long as 10 they were motivated. Following the task, they completed a 11 questionnaire regarding their motivation and engagement 12 in the task. The investigation established that participants 13 in the game-based groups performed the task significantly 14 longer when more game design elements were implemented 15 in the task (medians of 6 vs. 9.5 vs. 14 blocks for groups 16 with increasing number of different game design elements).17The participants in the game-based versions were also more 18 likely to end the task out of fatigue than for reasons of 19 boredom or frustration, which was verified by a fatigue 20 analysis of the myoelectric signal. We demonstrated that the 21 utilization of game design methodically in virtual myoelec-22 tric training tasks can support adherence and duration of a 23 virtual training, in the short-term. Whether such short-term 24 enhanced engagement would lead to long-term adherence 25 remains an open question.
