According to WHO data, 30% of adults and 85% of adolescents worldwide are considered to be inactive due to societal factors and lifestyle changes. Although exercise is frequently viewed as a dull activity, people show increasing interest in sedentary forms of entertainment like video games. Simultaneously, across the world, approximately 264m people are also experiencing depression and anxiety disorders.To alleviate the consequences of these issues, MediprospectsAI proposes to develop an XR-based solution that enables the 13+ teenagers and older demographics to step into immersive worlds and partake in physical activity exercise to promote a positive state of mind along with neurofeedback-based music therapy to provoke the best emotional impact.Our solution provides immense health benefits through an application connected to 3 devices, an AI-powered head-mounted display, an Emotiv EPOC EEG device, and an XR hand controller to address the abovementioned challenges by helping the 13+ population:Games:* a neurofeedback session: ten music snippets that last 30 seconds each are presented in order. A selection of similar instruments, each slightly animated, together with visual effects like fireworks shown on the head-mounted display for each song. The neurofeedback agent identifies the song with the greatest emotional impact, monitoring the user's emotions while exposed to the 10 songs.* an XR boxing game - the user should punch flying fireballs coming towards them and squat to avoid approaching barrels,* an XR rowing game - the player needs to perform rowing motion to steer a boat, available in two versions (a) boating in a relaxing environment for stress release, (b) a rowing race environment which can be played in a multiplayer setting, andBoth games will be created with the music chosen during the neurofeedback session.Exercises:* Lists of various fitness exercises with workout plans generated by AI; an XR-based aerobics sessionUsing the neurofeedback method, we modify the user's playlist to favour the song that is included in the games and has the most potential to affect the user. Our environment's neurofeedback feature allows us to customize each user's emotional experience. Moreover, the app incorporates calorie calculation and heart rate - a rare component for AI-based XR exercise gaming applications.Our service will be accessible without barriers such as affordability. The impact on our consumer demographic will be measured, evidenced, and reported through users' involvement and usability testing to refine and improve the solution's performance incrementally.

根据世界卫生组织的数据，由于社会因素和生活方式的改变，全球 30% 的成年人和 85% 的青少年被认为缺乏运动。尽管锻炼通常被认为是一项枯燥的活动，但人们对视频游戏等久坐的娱乐形式越来越感兴趣。与此同时，全球约有 2.64 亿人也患有抑郁症和焦虑症。为了减轻这些问题的后果，MediprospectsAI 提议开发一种基于 XR 的解决方案，使 13 岁以上的青少年和老年人能够步入沉浸式世界并参与其中体力活动锻炼可促进积极的心态，同时基于神经反馈的音乐疗法可激发最佳的情绪影响。我们的解决方案通过连接到 3 个设备（一个）的应用程序提供巨大的健康益处AI 驱动的头戴式显示器、Emotiv EPOC EEG 设备和 XR 手持控制器可帮助 13 岁以上人群解决上述挑战：游戏：* 神经反馈会话：按顺序呈现 10 个持续 30 秒的音乐片段。精选的类似乐器，每种乐器都有轻微的动画效果，每首歌曲的头戴式显示器上都会显示烟花等视觉效果。神经反馈代理识别出对情感影响最大的歌曲，在听这 10 首歌曲时监控用户的情绪。* XR 拳击游戏 - 用户应该击打飞来的火球，并蹲下以避免接近木桶，* XR 划船游戏- 玩家需要执行划船动作来驾驶船只，有两个版本（a）在轻松的环境中划船以释放压力，（b）可以在多人游戏环境中进行划船比赛环境，这两款游戏都将使用神经反馈会话期间选择的音乐进行创建。 练习：* 各种健身练习列表以及人工智能生成的锻炼计划；基于 XR 的健美操课程使用神经反馈方法，我们修改用户的播放列表以偏爱游戏中包含的且最有可能影响用户的歌曲。我们环境的神经反馈功能使我们能够定制每个用户的情感体验。此外，该应用程序还集成了卡路里计算和心率——这是基于人工智能的 XR 运动游戏应用程序中罕见的组件。我们的服务将不受负担等障碍的影响。我们将通过用户的参与和可用性测试来衡量、证明和报告对消费者群体的影响，以逐步完善和提高解决方案的性能。
