Project NATAL

Project NATAL is an exer-game prototype designed to "assist pregnant women with a BMI>30 to engage in safe and effective exercise in their own home". The game uses a webcam to track the movements of the player and allows them to complete a variety of exercises that are appropriate for their individual fitness level. While compelting exercises, go off on a series of quests and adventures to grow your home from a small village into a bustling town.
