Abstract:
Virtual reality (VR) has the potential to enhance rehabilitation by creating simulated multiple training environments, thereby maximizing the implementation of motor learning principles. However, previous use of VR-based treadmill training to improve post-stroke gait function is limited by high cost and a lack of adherence to post-stroke gait rehabilitation principles in system design. This paper describes the development of a gait rehabilitation system that integrates treadmill gait training with VR technology to create a virtual rehabilitation setting with gait training tasks and real-time performance feedback. The proposed system targets post-stroke patients and integrates low-cost sensor and rehabilitation principles to allow remote training and maximize training efficacy.Clinical Relevance—This system is developed with an emphasis on rehabilitation and motor learning principles.
