Kinect based Office Exercises: BreakOut

Staying immobilized for a long time causes many diseases, especially muscular diseases. However, many people spend all day sitting at the desk. This can cause discomfort in the waist, back, neck, shoulder areas. It is important to do brief exercises during the day to avoid these aches. Even though it seems like there is no time to spare in working conditions, this can be achieved with a few changes to be made. In this study, an exercise game was developed using Unity and Microsoft Kinect v2 to make sure that office workers do not sit around all day and do short-time exercises. The application was implemented in the Visual Studio environment using the C # software language. It is intended to encourage office workers to exercise by making exercises fun in the workplace. It is aimed to increase work motivations and to work more efficiently by decreasing the regional pain of the employees.
