KICK THE CAT

Developed by Indoor Santé with the German studio Funatics Software, Kick The Cat is an augmented reality mobile app in the form of a serious game that makes the standardised “6 minutes walk” medical test, used in medical settings to assess patients’ functional level, accessible to as many people as possible. Users walk as fast as they can following the app’s instructions and score points by catching virtual cats, before discovering their level of inactivity after six minutes. The more players there are, the more accurate the map of the population’s health becomes, contributing to prevention and health promotion initiatives in a given area.
