  • Abstract
    ImAble is an integrated upper limb (UL) exercise system comprising three devices (Able-B, Able-M and Able-X) targeting UL rehabilitation using computer games and virtual reality (VR). The system can be tailored to different levels of ability and strength, depending on the presentation of the stroke. Results from pilot testing and case studies indicate a therapeutic benefit for both movement outcome and patient motivation.
