Kurzfassung englisch:
Falls are dangerous, and unfortunately common for older adults. Dance! Donīt Fall is a game that assesses the quality of the userīs locomotion based on data from the accelerometer of a smartphone. By providing a form of exercise, the game may actually reduce fall risk as well as monitoring it. In this paper, we document the development of the prototype and a usability study with ten seniors that suggested the game is well suited to its primary users.
