Abstract

Stroke is one of the most common causes of mortality and reduced disability-adjusted life years worldwide. Our team developed a software to deliver enhanced mirror therapy for people with stroke. , however, their feasibility and vividness have not been thoroughly investigated. This pilot study aims to test the feasibility of the using the newly developed software to deliver enhanced mirror therapy amongst healthy adults. Our study finds that EMT demonstrates high feasibility and acceptability among healthy subjects. The system also showed acceptable vividness, realness of the displayed hand, and perceived effort of generating movement sensation of the displayed hand. The specific task which has the highest realness and effort perceived is also investigated.
