Summary

Stroke survivors with hemiplegia will be evaluated by rehabilitation professionals and asked to perform a battery of assessments to test the viability and usability of a force-feedback robot that adapts to each individual subject's performance. Subsequently, they will be asked to complete post-assessment questionnaires that provide feedback to the researchers on their observations and thoughts about the therapy devices.

DEVICE

Haptic Robot Therapy with Games

Commercial Joystick and Wheels Plus the Haptic TheraDrive Robot will be used. Haptic Theradrive is a low-cost robotic system for post-stroke upper extremity rehabilitation. The system uses off-the-shelf computer gaming wheels with force feedback to help reduce motor impairment and improve function in the arms of stroke survivors.
