Stroke survivors have higher risks of falling compared to other healthy non-stroke adults. Stroke patients' balance can be trained by Kinect-based training that enable user friendly and interactive training.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kinect based Rapid Movement Therapy | Experimental | Kinect based Rapid Movement Therapy (RMT) training requires participants to move their limbs very rapidly to reach-to-grasp or step towards a virtual target appear suddenly on a screen, which is designed to their range of motion as well as response speed. |
|
| Conventional balance training | Placebo Comparator | Conventional balance training involves some slow and low-impact muscle strengthening and mobilizing exercises. |

Subjective measure of confidence in performing various ambulatory activities without falling or experiencing a sense of unsteadiness
| 3-month follow-up |
| Barthel Index of Activities of Daily Living | It is used to assess the ability of an individual with a neuromuscular or musculoskeletal disorder to care for him/herself | 3-month follow-up |
| Electromyography (EMG) | It is used to detect the muscle activity | 3-month follow-up |
| "lean-and-release" postural system | It is used to evaluate balance-recovery in chronic stroke patients. Participants will wear a safety harness designed to prevent impact between body and floor, and they will be asked to stand on two force plates in standardized stance and lean forward with around 10% body weight supported by a cable attached to a release mechanism. Compensatory balance-recovery reactions will be evoked by the sudden release of the support cable, inducing a forward fall. Participants will be evaluated under three different conditions: no handrail, handrail on the unaffected side, and handrail on the affected side. | 3-month follow-up |
