N2 - Children with cerebral palsy (CP) frequently struggle with slow walking, and irregular step and stride length, which require comprehensive lower limb rehabilitation exercises to improve and strengthen their leg muscles for daily activities. The current hospital rehabilitation programs are usually repetitive, making it difficult for kids to stick with the training in the long run. In order to encourage, track, and support children's lower limb rehabilitation training, this study proposes an interactive gaming carpet and the intelligent gait pattern analysis that goes along with it. With the use of color, lighting, and sound cues, this game carpet design trains kids in bilateral leg coordination, single-leg stepping, and step length correction. In the meanwhile, therapists can use intelligent gait pattern analysis to help them objectively analyze children's conditions and provide customized exercise plans.
