Over the past years in medical field, biofeedback (BF) therapy programs have gained a lot of importance in patient education. Using BF promises to overcome challenges that is faced in routine teaching methods such as, low focus during therapy and the difficulty of transferring it into everyday practice. The innovation of this proposal is biofeedback with good visual feedback in the form of a game. By this method, the patient would be made aware of his or her reactions through the modification of features in the game and the patient may learn to control the physiological parameters and using the feedback provided by the visual input and would be able to succeed in learning. The supplemental use of portable devices with gamification may allow the patient to perform at home, individually and the same exercises and bring about much physiological changes. The idea of this study in intended to motivate the patients and normal individuals to improve their lung function by biofeedback mechanism
