HEROES: Human Extremity Robotic Rehabilitation and Outcome Enhancement for Stroke

The participants will be trained to modulate self-paced Visual Motor Imagery (VMI) and Kinesthetic Motor Imagery (KMI) under EEG recording in order to achieve BCI-control of a custom-built bimanual arms robot (MERCURY v2.0). In KMI they will be asked to modulate brain waves in order to learn to control the BCI and in VMI they will additionally be projected a visual cue (representation of the intended movement). BCI will be used to control the arms in physical space as well as in an Augmented Reality Environment. Each participant will take part in 3 sessions

The participants will don wearable robotics and use them as input to play a dojo-themed immersive serious game intended at tracking participants movement and presenting them with motor tasks to perform. The game will be played in a computer screen, as well as in an Augmented Reality Environment. Each participant will take part in 10 sessions
