Abstract

The existing rehabilitation systems based on augmented reality (AR) are lacking of the targeted training of joint and requiring a large number of auxiliary equipment. This paper proposes a novel framework for wrist-rehabilitation assessment and training that integrates AR technology with kinesiotherapy and occupational therapy in rehabilitation medicine, which focuses on coaching patients to wrist radial and ulnar deviation rehabilitation at any time and any place. Particularly, an AR-based water-droplet training game, suggested by clinical doctors in hospital, is developed to improve the flexibility of the wrist movement. The effect of rehabilitation can be achieved by measuring the range of motion (ROM) of the wrist. Finally, the evaluation scheme of this framework is designed in detail.
