Uniphy is a product-service system that is able to help the patient at every step in the therapy process. It is a smartphone application that uses technology from Google’s project Tango to record the exercise in 3D at the practice of the therapist. This recording can be played back to the patient at a later time. When the patient executes the exercise, Uniphy is able to measure whether the patient correctly performs the exercise and gives both visual and audio feedback accordingly. This reports depicts product details such as the enabling technology, the interface, the feedback system, and any additional products that may be required. Further attention was given to developing a proof of concept using similiar technology as Uniphy and a validation test where the value-proposition of Uniphy is tested.
