Abstract: | Stroke is the leading cause of disability worldwide and a great percentage of those who have suffered a stroke are increasing in most countries, which makes it difficult to provide optimal treatment to patients once they return home. Assistive technology solutions can potentially help meet customer demand and also be cost-effective. The aim of this paper is to present the design and development of a virtual reality (VR) system to support the upper limb rehabilitation process of patients with brain injuries. According to the above, the patient in the rehabilitation process can perform various exercises in an interactive way, thus improving the motivation of the patient and reducing the work of the carer. In conclusion, the study presents the technical description of usage scenarios of the implementations of the application in a virtual environment (VE) for people who have suffered a stroke. |
