The paper presents an innovative Kinect-based Telerehabilitation System (KiReS). It supports physical therapy sessions remotely, saving healthcare costs and improving the quality of life of the users needing rehabilitation. The system incorporates new features that extract knowledge about the patient’s physical therapy record and treatment protocols. It also provides a two-way real-time multimedia communication for a user-friendly experience. The system has been tested with patients suffering from shoulder disorders or total hip replacement.
