Development of a haptic interface for motor rehabilitation therapy using augmented reality

Abstract: In this paper, a robot-assisted therapy system is presented, mainly focused on the improvement of fine movements of patients with motor deficits of upper limbs. This system combines the use of a haptic device with an augmented reality environment, where a kind of occupational therapy exercises are implemented. The main goal of the system is to provide an extra motivation to patients, who are stimulated visually and tactilely into a scene that mixes elements of real and virtual worlds. Additionally, using the n… Show more

“…Many studies report that MR provides added motivation for stroke patients and those recovering from injuries who often get bored by the repetition of the exercises they need to complete (e.g. [22], [23], [24]). Often solutions are based on affordable technologies that can be deployed in patients homes.…”

“…As the number of the old and the disabled increases and the social interest in welfare grows, the necessity for vehicular technology in the field of rehabilitation has expanded as part of an effort to enhance the quality of life and save medical costs through independent daily activities and sustained rehabilitation treatments, As for rehabilitation vehicle technology, there are ongoing studies on wheelchair-based rehabilitation vehicles, including the researches on the operation of an electric wheelchair [3], the implementation of an obstacle avoidance and navigation function using a sensor in an intelligent electric wheelchair [4] and the wheelchair driving through the recognition of the user's intention using EEG [5] [6] [7]. Upper limb rehabilitation vehicle research includes the following: (i) KARES I [8] [9], a type of wheelchair-mounted manipulator for those unable to use their hands, which can move by detecting pupil movements using the vehicle's camera and shoulder movements using a sensor; (ii) MIT-MANUS [10], with which the user can move to the desired location by looking at the target point on the table and through the monitor; and (iii) a workstation-type vehicle that uses a haptic device [11] [12].…”

“…The following Table 1 enumerates some of present AR-based rehabilitation systems [6,7,8,9,10,11,12] , which can be carried out wrist training, with a comparative analysis of these systems' three aspects that include the components, training process, evaluation methods and features of system. These systems can provide a favorable training environment for patients with high interest and deep immersion.…”
