How Game Design Might Help Reimagine Rehabilitation Therapy: a Product Designer Perspective

<h1>Introduction</h1> Have you ever found yourself thinking as a designer, “Oh, there’s no way I’m getting involved in that; it’s too complex for me,” or perhaps, “Why would I, with no prior experience in such a field, be able to even spark some interest in such a vertical and highly specialised topic?” Yes? Well… yeah, that’s precisely how I felt at the very outset of this project when I was thinking what to do for my Industrial Product Design Bachelor’s Thesis. And if I wasn’t already naive enough to take on such a challenge, I’ve now chosen to share my experience with anyone willing to read about it. The project received support by one of Italy’s largest hospitals while collaborating with one of my university’s healthcare design lab during my final year as a Bachelor’s student.

My responsibility was to delve into research, pinpoint a specific issue to tackle, and design a solution for it. <a href="https://medium.com/@giogilberti/how-game-design-might-help-reimagining-rehabilitation-therapy-a-product-designer-perspective-d46c8d8a8dd">Visit Now</a>
