Within the context of health informatics, this article discusses how real-time information of human skeleton movements can be conveniently captured via the use of Kinect-based deep sensor. It highlights an effective action recognition method, using Unity3D to form virtual models of characters and scenes. Kinect somatosensory cameras can now identify one's motion data and provide feedback on the virtual role model to complete the avatar drive. This is to achieve real-time simulation modeling as well as drive operation instructions based on the design and identification verification to complement limb rehabilitation. The hardware of such a health informatics-related system is simple, inexpensive, and highly meaningful in term of augmenting user experience. In conclusion, the suggested approach can contribute significantly towards aiding physical rehabilitation therapy

Continued growth of urban regions and more stringent water quality regulations have resulted in an increased need for more real-time information about past, present, and future patterns and intensities of precipitation. Detailed, real-time information about precipitation can be obtained using radar and raingages for monitoring and prediction of precipitation amounts. The philosophy and the requirements for the development of real-time radar prediction-monitoring systems are described for climatic region similar to the Midwest of the united States. General data analysis and interpretation techniques associated with rainfall from convective storm systems are presented.
