Virtual Reality (VR) systems have been used in science as tools for teaching and learning, technical training and entertainment. In the field of neurofunctional rehabilitation, VR gives a real opportunity to complement conventional therapy on people who live with physical and cognitive limitations. Here we present a project, whose goal is to test and improve a VR package to aid the improv…
Efforts to better understand the neuro-rehabilitation processes in stroke patients are relevant to the future development of optimized e-Health solutions to accelerate motor recovery and patient autonomy. Treatments with motor and cognitive stimuli are present in neurofunctional recovery processes, including assistive technologies and, more recently, the use of Virtual Reality interfaces …
