Abstract

Telerehabilitation has many proven advantages to present for hand mobility restoration. To produce a way for the patient to benefit from it without losing the continuous support of the therapist that traditional rehabilitation offers, we built a complete system of controlled rehabilitation based on touchless hand tracking and developed the framework for its use from therapists and patients. In this paper, we present the devices it uses together with user-friendly applications developed keeping in mind the patients and therapists. Furthermore, we present the methods that can be used for analyzing hand tracking data in order to acquire information for joint-wise mobility improvement.
