Camera for Rehabilitation of Patients with Impaired Dexterity
, 2013
"... An efficient method for utilising a two-dimensional camera to recognise hand gestures in three-dimensional space is described. The work is presented within the context of a recuperation aid for younger children with impaired movement of the upper limbs. The application is designed for use on a stand ..."

elements of the image, and encouraging the child to regard the application as a game rather than a chore. The application promotes repeated use of specific hand skills identified by the medical profession to stimulate and assess rehabilitation of patients with impaired upper limb dexterity.
Kinematic Data Analysis for Post-Stroke Patients Following Bilateral Versus Unilateral Rehabilitation With an Upper Limb Wearable Robotic System
"... Abstract—Robot-assisted stroke rehabilitation has become popular as one approach to helping patients recover function post-stroke. Robotic rehabilitation requires four important elements to match the robot to the patient: realistic biomechanical robotic elements, an assistive control scheme enabled ..."

through the human–robot interface, a task oriented rehabilitation program based on the principles of plasticity, and objective assessment tools to monitor change. This paper reports on a randomized clinical trial utilizing a complete robot-assisted rehabilitation system for the recovery of upper limb
Clinical Study The Ineffective Role of Cathodal tDCS in Enhancing the Functional Motor Outcomes in Early Phase of Stroke Rehabilitation: An Experimental Trial
"... Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive technique that could improve the rehabilitation outcomes in stroke, eliciting neuroplastic mechanisms. At the same time conflicting results have been reported in subacute phase of stroke, when neuroplasticity is crucial. The aim of thi ..."

of this double-blind, randomized, and sham-controlled study was to determine whether a treatment with cathodal tDCS before the rehabilitative training might augment the final outcomes (upper limb function, hand dexterity and manual force, locomotion, and activities of daily living) in respect of a traditional
INTEGRATING EYE TRACKING IN VIRTUAL REALITY FOR STROKE REHABILITATION i
, 2014
"... This thesis reports on research done for the integration of eye tracking technology into virtual reality environments, with the goal of using it in rehabilitation of patients suffering from stroke. For the last few years, eye tracking has been a focus on medical research, used as an assistive tool ..."

unknown title
"... Abstract—Assistive technologies (AT) have the potential to augment individual’s life and to promote functional independence. However, in many cases, optimum use of an assistive technology device is restricted due to the difficulties in interacting with the user. Owing to inherent differences in the ..."

. Similar need for such measures can be seen in rehabilitation where appropriate objective measures can inform the effectiveness of a therapy regime or help to compare different therapies and their usefulness. This paper presents the peg-in-hole haptic assessment designed for quantifying upper limb skills.

"... The purpose of this study was to investigate whether additional practice of either upper limb or mobility tasks improved functional outcome during inpatient stroke rehabilitation. This prospective, randomised, single blind clinical trial recruited 30 stroke subjects into either an Upper Limb or a M ..."

developed a new concept for at-home low-cost motor rehabilitation, the NTT, an Internet-based interactive system for upper-limb rehabilitation. In this paper we present the NTT design concepts, its implementation and a proof of concept study with 10 healthy participants. The NTT brings together concepts
Using Socially Assistive Robotics to Augment Motor Task Performance in Individuals Post–Stroke
