Abstract-The convergence of game technology, the Internet, and rehabilitation science forms the second-generation virtual rehabilitation framework. This paper presents the first pilot study designed to look at the feasibility of at-home use of gaming technology adapted to address hand impairments in adolescents with hemiplegia due to perinatal stroke or intraventricular hemorrhage. Three participants trained at home for approximately 30 min/day, several days a week, for six to ten months. During therapy, they wore a Fifths Dimension Technologies Ultra sensing glove and played custom-developed Java 3D games on a modified PlayStation 3. The games were designed to accommodate the participants' limited range of motion, and to improve finger range and speed of motion. Trials took place in Indiana, while monitoFring/data storage took place at Rutgers Tele-Rehabilitation Institute (New Jersey). Significant improvements in finger range of motion (as measured by the sensing glove) were associated with self-and family-reported improvements in activities of daily living. In online subjective evaluations, participants indicated that they liked the system ease of use, clarity of instructions, and appropriate length of exercising. Other telerehabilitation studies are compared to this study and its technology challenges. Directions for future research are included.

“…When those rehabilitation systems that could be used in hospitals or physical therapy centers are reviewed; it is seen that systems that shall decrease the work load of physical therapist [1,2] or that shall increase the participation of the patient to the rehabilitation process [3,4] are developed. It could be said that those systems are with external skeleton manipulator [5] or tele-rehabilitation based [6].…”

Loss of motor skills in hand due to several reasons affects daily life in a negative way. Treatment or rehabilitation must be applied in order to reactivate motor skills. Different systems were developed in the rehabilitation process by benefiting from technology. Those systems work as telerehabilitation-based or with external skeleton manipulator. An internet connection is required for telerehabilitation-based systems and a physical therapist must carry out the rehabilitation process for systems with external skeleton manipulator. This shall increase the work load of physical therapist. In this study, it is aimed to decrease the work load of physical therapist and develop a hand rehabilitation system with easier and more flexible usage. With this purpose, a system that consists of three units communicate with each other wirelessly and which could be used even without a physical therapist.
