No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of manipulating the optic flow (OF) speed in 2 different virtual environments (VE) on active participation in healthy participants during virtual reality (VR) - enhanced robot-assisted gait(RAG).

The second aim is to investigate the effect of two different VEs on active participation during RAG.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

OTHER

Stimulus rich VE

Participants will walk in the Lokomat with the VR for 21 minutes. After every 7 minutes, the speed of the OF will change (2 times the comfortable walking speed, equally to the comfortable walking speed, and 0.5 times the comfortable walking speed).

OTHER

Stimulus poor VE

Participants will walk in the Lokomat with the VR for 21 minutes. After every 7 minutes, the speed of the OF will change (2 times the comfortable walking speed, equally to the comfortable walking speed, and 0.5 times the comfortable walking speed).
