摘要: Over the years, an increasing number of adult population suffers from some form back pain during their lifetime, something that consecutively has a very important impact on country’s health, as well economic systems. Traditional methods diagnosing and treating such problems normally involve collection gathering medical information regarding type location pain, its visualization 2D representation human body using various monochrome symbols. However, these 2-dimensional drawings have usually limited abilities in accurately recording representing making them way difficult time consuming for both patients doctors to use. As result, this work we propose alternative interactive environment diagnosis, based wireless-enabled solution encompasses virtual reality user interface. Our proposed approach uses questionnaire collect appropriate information, via 3-dimensional which can be marked color, it could visualize record overcoming aforementioned limitations.
