Summary

This study evaluates the use of Playware technology for balance training. Falling among elder is a costly problem. Research shows that training can help prevent falls. Pilot studies of the use of Interactive Modular Tiles (IMT) show that the participants can highly increase their physical abilities.

The interventions group will train using interactive modular tiles. The tiles include preprogrammed games that create playful training for the participants.

The control group will receive "usual care", which here refers to normal day activities.

The intervention will be done 2 times a week for 12 weeks, each session lasting 1 hour and each participant receiving 13 minutes of training each time.
