A Guide to Bobo Dice
- Description
- Curriculum
This course is a dedicated training guide for BoBo Dice, an innovative, gamified rehabilitation system that pairs smart, motion-detecting dice with a digital app to transform hand therapy and cognitive training into an interactive experience.
What the Course is About
The course introduces therapists, clinicians, and home-care providers to the technology behind BoBo Dice. It covers how to seamlessly integrate these 3D-sensor-equipped dice into therapeutic workflows to treat pediatric patients, individuals recovering from stroke or hand surgery, and geriatric patients aiming to preserve independence.
What You Will Learn
- Device Setup: How to connect the Bluetooth dice, utilise different-sized adaptive shells, handle the 10-second fast-charging setup, and navigate the iOS/Android companion app.
- Targeted Hand Exercises: How to guide patients through specialised fine motor movements, including dynamic tripod grips, translation and rotation, bimanual (two-handed) coordination, and tip-to-tip pinches.
- Dual-Task Cognitive Training: How to implement games that simultaneously challenge physical dexterity and mental processing (such as memory, focus, matching, and basic math).
- Data Tracking & Customisation: How to read real-time clinical metrics (like rotation speed, movement accuracy, and cognitive scores) to track patient progress and build objective, personalised treatment plans.

5
The App Framework - Games, Assessment & Data Tracking
By pairing physical manipulation with targeted cognitive challenges, the platform transforms hand therapy from a basic physical task into an advanced neuro-rehab experience.

6
Interactive Games & Gamified Rehabilitation
In traditional hand therapy, repetitive fine motor exercises can quickly feel tedious, leading to patient fatigue and drop-off. Gamification transforms repetitive motor actions into purposeful, goal-directed play.

Bonus Chapter: Understand Bobo Dice vs Bobo Dice Pro
When learning or teaching the BoBo Dice system, it is easy to wonder why certain online modules refer to 'colors, geometric shapes, or complex 20-sided math games' that don't seem to match the basic kit in front of you.
The distinction lies in the two kit tiers: the Standard BoBo Dice Kit (the focus of this course) and the expanded BoBo Dice Pro Kit. Both tiers run on the exact same app and sensor technology, but the Pro package expands the physical hardware to unlock deeper cognitive, sensory, and multi-user therapy modalities.
