Abstract We propose a concept allowing disabled patient taking their rehabilitation treatment without going to the hospital. We design a portable device of rehabilitation and it can be lightweight in an advanced version. Particularly, we select PhoneGap to be a mobile development framework and to build the specific application for mobile devices using JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3 instead of using device-specific language in our system. The great advantage is crossplatform that represent write once and run anywhere. In our software, we lead the patient to do the exercise of rehabilitation step-by-step and then store recovery status in database. Finally, the system will play restful music when patient do exercise. According to the mentioned above, we developed the Mobility Rehabilitation that combines mobility, entertainment, and storing ability. Keywords Rehabilitation

Introduction Recently, Smart Phone has being widely used and the number of applications also increases. It is not only because of the prevalence of Smart Phone, but also the strong operating systems that provide the users to install software and games easily. Compared with all the existing operating systems, Android seems to be more developer-friendly since it releases it’s source code and the kernel and file system that allow programmers to modify and fix the bugs. For example, other systems don’t release the open source including Windows Mobile and Apple iOS. Due to the convenience for both users and developers, Android-based Smart Phone is now most popular in the market. The percentage of the population of elders is increasing in Taiwan for decades. Stroke and dementia are key problems of the functional impairment among the old people, lead great impact to the whole society. Stroke is one of the major causes of dementia. Several risk factors might cause this cerebrovascular attack including diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and smoking. Besides the acute onset of neurological deficit, the pathological changes of small cerebral vessels have been associated chronic deterioration of mentality. Modified Framingham Stroke Risk Profile (FSRP) is proposed to predict the risk of stroke in 10 years and had been proven to be an independent predictor for the dec
