Project Abstract

Abstract
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability worldwide, often resulting in motor impairments that require extensive rehabilitation. Traditional rehabilitation methods are often limited in their effectiveness and accessibility. The aim of this research project is to develop a Virtual Reality (VR)-based therapy system specifically designed for stroke rehabilitation, with the goal of improving patient outcomes and enhancing the rehabilitation process. This abstract provides an overview of the key components and findings of the project.
