dc.description.abstractThe world population is aging, all countries are experiencing an increase of elder population. The pace of aging population in many developing countries is substantially faster than in the past. Consequently, these countries must adapt much more rapidly to this aging. Therapy and Physical activity helps to improve health and well-being in the elders, for it brings longevity and improves quality of life. Sport and physical activity have been used as a tool to improve life. The technology has been used to promote entertainment and sport through digital games with wireless technology. Wii games had a positive impact on the overall well-being of the elderly, compared to a control group that played traditional board games. Our proposal combines both, virtual reality and body area network for generate a fun application that allows the elderly to control a Unnamed aerial vehicle (UAV) in a completely virtual environment using only the movement of his arms.eng
