Abstract
Non-invasive sensor technology is used as an interface to a computer system to collect physical movement data that
controls elements of a virtual environment. The environment is used for rehabilitation training i.e. physiological
learning, for people with profound disabilities, and often no verbal competence. Movement of the human body is
sourced as feed-forward kinetic data and empowered to control multimedia feedback content, e.g. audio, visual, or
robotic feedback. It is delivered to be as a direct and immediate feedback so as to optimise user-awareness and
association. The feedback is selectable as either figurative or abstract in form and can be art or game based. Inherent to
the programming design of the data collection is the creation of stillness zones which generate nul data. The stillness
zones have been found significant for participant augmented communication. The uses of these stillness zones for this
targeted community have been subject to limited exposure. This paper describes how these zones are used in
rehabilitation training. Findings are presented from the established SoundScapes body of research that has existed for
two decades.
