Tailoring virtual reality technology for stroke rehabilitation: a human factors design

In this paper we introduce an interdisciplinary project to develop a virtual reality enhanced stroke rehabilitation system (VRSRS). In particular, we propose a human factors design in developing a VRSRS for improving the functional recovery rate of stroke patients' upper extremities. Keywords Human factors, virtual reality, stroke rehabilitation. ACM Classification Keywords J.3. Life and Medical Sciences: Health; J.4.
