| Abstract: In this paper a model which provide the patient
with a fast and simplified way of performing home therapy
is described. Model is based on virtual reality, movement
tracking and sensors’ reading. Technically, it is consisted of
(1) medically designed Software as a Service platform which
provide remote, secure, reliable and always available
software platform, (2) interactive virtual reality games that
increase patient’s motivation and concentration, (3)
Microsoft Kinect for motion tracking and (4) embedded
systems for tracking physical abilities during gameplay. The
paper presents the results of applying this model of therapy
to a single post-stroke patient. Therapy was focused on the
upper limb and visual difficulty and resulted with
improvements in both. |
