Integrating technology in neurological rehabilitation

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

This chapter presents and discusses the integration of computer-assisted technology as one approach to maximize independence and quality of life in older adults and people with physical impairments. Rehabilitation robotics and computer-assisted technology use brain interfaces, sensorimotor interfaces, virtual reality environments, and learning-based gaming programs to remediate sensory, motor, and cognitive impairments and improve memory skills and physical abilities required for independent mobility and self-care at home, in the community, at work, and during the performance of recreational activities..
