Abstract Background The rehabilitation of gait disorders in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and stroke is often based on conventional treadmill training. Virtual reality (VR)-based training can increase motivation improve therapy outcomes. present study evaluated an immersive virtual application (using a head-mounted display, HMD) for to (1) demonstrate its feasibility acceptance (2) compare short-term effects semi-immersive presentation monitor) without VR assess the usability both...
Virtual Reality (VR) technology offers promising opportunities to improve traditional treadmill-based rehabilitation programs. We present an immersive VR system that includes a head-mounted display and motion sensors. The application is designed promote the experience of relatedness, autonomy, competence. uses procedural content generation generate diverse landscapes. evaluated effect on motivation affect. conducted repeated measures study with 36 healthy participants compare program...
Abstract A highly versatile setup, which introduces an optical gradient trap into a Raman spectrometer, is presented. The particular configuration, consists of two lasers, makes trapping independent from the excitation laser and allows separate adjustment wavelengths. Thus, wavelength can be chosen according to needs application. We describe successful application on transparent as well reflective, metal‐coated microparticles. spectra were recorded optically trapped polystyrene beads single...
