摘要
Virtual Assisted Rehabilitation System (VARS) provides rehabilitation for patients suffering from lower part injuries, such as muscular dystrophy, at the lowest cost possible. VARS is a combination of software (Processing, ElectricGuru and PLX software) and hardware (pressure sensors, electromyography, accelerometers, platform and virtual reality eyeglasses). The collected data, saved on host PC, is used by the physiotherapist for status estimation. The latter then identifies specific gaming profile (type of game and time needed for treatment) for the patient depending on his status. VARS had been tested on 22 candidates (12 abnormal and 10 normal). The result showed that gaming techniques in this system simulates the muscle activity over time by simulating the action-perception. Moreover, the foot pressure distribution (FPD) profiles vary obviously between normal and abnormal patients where specific disease is determined (e.g. Rheumatism).
