In order to have a more personalized approach to patient rehabilitation, as well as to track the progress more_x000D_
accurately, AnimationLeader Technology Inc. plans to utilize remote sensors to represent body joints and their_x000D_
movement more accurately. This project will achieve this goal through development of a biometric-based_x000D_
