Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common children and adults movement disorder that is associated with life-long disability and multiple impairments. Children with CP demonstrate poor fine and gross motor function due to psychomotor disturbances. Early rehabilitation programs are essential for children with CP and should be appropriate for the age and functional condition of the patients. Robot-assisted...
This paper will describe the NJIT-RAVR system, which combines adaptive robotics with complex VR simulations for the rehabilitation of upper extremity impairments and function in children with CP. The feasibility of this system is examined in the context of two pilot studies. The NJIT-RAVR system consists of the Haptic Master, a 6 degrees of freedom, admittance controlled robot and a suite of rehabilitation...
In this paper a new vision based interface (VBI) for children with cerebral palsy is presented. The VBI is implemented for the interaction between children and computer. The VBI detects and tracks the movement of the hand, foot or head of the user. These movements are translated into movements of the cursor on the screen of the computer. The evaluation of system user-VBI is based on HAAT model. The...
