How the tool works The tool uses a regular camera to record movement during exercise. It does not use facial recognition. It gives the patient simple, encouraging messages, such as "great job" or "keep going." It does not give medical advice or correct the patient's movements during the session. The research team reviews the recordings later; they are not reviewed in real time. Who can join People age 70 or older who had surgery for a hip fracture and are staying in the Orthogeriatrics Unit at Ramón y Cajal University Hospital, in Madrid, Spain. What happens in the study Forty-eight people will take part. Half will receive standard physical therapy plus one daily session with the motivational tool. Half will receive standard physical…
