Sensing System for Plegic or Paretic Hands Self-Training Motivation.

ABSTRACT: Patients after stroke with paretic or plegic hands require frequent exercises to promote neuroplasticity and to improve hand joint mobilization. Available devices for hand exercising are intended for persons with some level of hand control or provide continuous passive motion with limited patient involvement. Patients can benefit from self-exercising where they use the other hand to exercise the plegic or paretic one. However, post-stroke neuropsychological complications, apathy, and cognitive impairments such as forgetfulness make regular self-exercising difficult. This paper describes Przypominajka v2-a system intended to support self-exercising, remind about it, and motivate patients. We propose a glove-based device with an on-device machine-learning-based exercise scoring, a tablet-bas
