VR-REHAB

The Project

VIRTUAL REALITY IN THE ASSESSMENT AND TELEREHABILITATION
OF PARKINSONS DISEASE AND POST STROKE DISABILITIES
Applied Technology for Neuro-Psychology Lab – Istituto Auxologico Italiano
2013/2014

Main Roles
  • Collaboration in the ideation, design, development and clinical evaluation of Neglect App, the first mobile application for the rehabilitation of unilateral spatial neglect, one of the most common consequences after a vascular event such as stroke.
  • Execution of the clinical trial
