Abstract
We propose a concept allowing disabled patient taking their rehabilitation treatment without going to the hospital. We design a portable device of rehabilitation and it can be lightweight in an advanced version. Particularly, we select PhoneGap to be a mobile development framework and to build the specific application for mobile devices using JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3 instead of using device-specific language in our system. The great advantage is cross-platform that represent write once and run anywhere. In our software, we lead the patient to do the exercise of rehabilitation step-by-step and then store recovery status in database. Finally, the system will play restful music when patient do exercise. According to the mentioned above, we developed the Mobility Rehabilitation that combines mobility, entertainment, and storing ability.
