The Wellness Hour - Rehabify Turns Physio Into Play

Rehabify is a new app that turns physical exercises into interactive, game-like experiences for seniors. The app was developed by three SP students from the School of Computing—Lim Jian Ping, Rafael Macam, and Reyes Ng—who were motivated by Ng’s volunteer work with the Singapore Red Cross. Noticing that traditional physiotherapy and exercise routines for seniors are often dull and uninspiring, the team used computer vision and AI to create games controlled by body movements instead of controllers. Their goal is not only to make exercise enjoyable but also to encourage consistency in seniors’ physical activity, blending eldercare with innovation and empathy. Their entry won them the 2025 Grand Prize at SP Batey Challenge 2025.
