Abstract Background We hypothesize that the integration of virtual reality (VR) with robot assisted rehabilitation could be successful if applied to children hemiparetic CP. The combined benefits increased attention provided by VR and larger training stimulus afforded adaptive robotics may increase beneficial effects these two approaches synergistically. This paper will describe NJIT-RAVR system, which combines complex simulations for upper extremity impairments function in CP examine...

Objective: To investigate the ability of New Jersey Institute Technology Robot Assisted Virtual Rehabilitation (NJIT-RAVR) system training to elicit changes in upper extremity (UE) function children with hemiplegia secondary cerebral palsy.Methods: Nine (mean age 9 years, three males) participated pilots. Subjects trained 1 hour, 3 days a week for weeks. Two groups performed this protocol as their only intervention. The third group also 5–6 hours constraint-induced movement therapy.Results:...

In recent years, important efforts to improve monitoring, protection and control of power systems have been explored. this connection, several novel approaches for assessing vulnerability improving security in real time developed. However, most the work is commonly focused on tackling stability phenomena, while possible overloads are often treated as negligible real-time system security. But sometimes, high electric post-contingency currents might provoke which could increase problem. This...

We describe the design and testing of a system that integrates rich virtual environments assist as needed robotics to allow children with upper extremity impairments perform rehabilitation activities in form computer games. Five simulations well positioning interface approaches are described. To provide proof concept we trained four mild moderate hemiplegia secondary cerebral palsy. The made improvements clinical measures function reaching kinematics measured by robot.
