Encouragement-induced movement therapy in daily life
This project aims to encourage stroke patients to healthier movement patterns through precise measurement and feedback of intensity and type of activity, creating an adaptable and motivating mode of rehabilitation. We will develop and experimentally validate miniature wearable sensor modules and multi-modal feedback technology capable of encouraging chronic stroke patients to a more frequent use of their affected upper limb in the home environment.
