Abstract :
This paper describes the improvement of an intelligent tilt table which has an additional visual feedback function to increase the effect of exercise. Information including sliding distance and load of each leg is measured and displayed on the front panel display in real time so that the patient can get visual feed back on his/her exercise activity. The experimental results showed that this visual feedback function could increase the effect of rehabilitation exercise.
