Tolerance Study of Robotic-Assisted Virtual Reality Walking Rehabilitation for Non-Walking Stroke Patients

"Realization of Gait Trainer-assisted robot walking rehabilitation sessions without and with the addition of an immersive VR device. The proposed virtual stage will be a natural space (i.e. forest) of 360°. The subject will be able to explore the environment without moving. The created scene represents a straight path crossing a landscape composed of different natural elements. A fluid movement is obtained with the help of two sensors (trackers) of the HTC Vive device, placed at the level of the subject's feet. Moreover, thanks to these sensors the individual has a virtual representation of his lower limbs.~Post-stroke patients will perform 3 conventional sessions (Gait Trainer alone) and 3 sessions with the immersive VR device (Gait Trainer + VR)."
