Research Abstract |
Due to the advance of the technology in medicine, the number of stroke survivors has increased gradually. On the other side, the number of the patients with impairment after stroke also has increased, because the incidence rate of stroke is not changed dramatically. For more effective rehabilitation for motor impairment after stroke, we have developed and produced a rehabilitation system utilizing imitation learning byrequiring paralyzed limb of patients with motor impairment to be moved passively synchronizing with the movement, performed by another person, displayed on CRT monitor when the patients try to move the limb.
