This research focuses on the creation of an "exergame" - a videogame especially designed to stimulate physical exercise - that, through voice commands, allows the visually impaired users to practice physical activity and train their abilities. This tool has been developed starting from an existing dance-game, by generating some appropriate interfaces that also involve the sensory channel of sight. Our research aims to study the effects related to this exergame on the motor control mechanism in a blind children's group, aged between 8 and 13 years: it focuses also on the joint use of movement analysis systems and of videogames in order to stimulate the physical activity in these subjects.

This phenomenon has been triggered on the one hand by the students, both in the school and the university, who make use of new informa-tion and communication technology based learning paradigms, despite the conservative resis-tance of most of the teachers; on the other hand also because of the inclusion needs of people with disabilities and specific learning disabilities who until now have been excluded from education at various levels or that they have to face their studies with great difficulty. The present paper dis-cusses some examples of applications in which not only we explain how the technology makes these guys able to participate but also what the design methods are by which you define the ac-tions characterized by a multidisciplinary approach individualized.
