Abstract:	Augmented reality (A.R.) is the underlying technique where 3D virtual objects are integrated in real-time with a real environment. Augmented reality applications such as medical visualization, maintenance and repair, robot path planning, entertainment, military aircraft navigation, and targeting applications have been proposed. This paper introduces the development of an augmented reality game that allows the user to carry out arm exercises using a natural user interface based on Microsoft Kinect. The system has been designed as an augmented game in which the user's hands are in a world augmented with virtual objects generated by computer graphics. The player is sitting in a chair, just grasping the yellow stars that are displayed in the stage. It encourages the activities of a large number of arm muscles which will prevent decay. It is also suitable for rehabilitation.
