Augmented Reality-based Telerehabilitation Platform for Patients With Stroke: A Feasibility Study

The study is to 1) determine the feasibility of the use of our augmented reality (AR) rehabilitation program, including its preliminary efficacy, 2) determine the feasibility of obtaining an augmented reality assessment based on the Fugl-Meyer Assessment - Upper Extremity (FMA-UE).

3. Upper extremity deficit with an FMA-UE score between 20-50
4. Able to operate the AR device independently or with the help of a caregiver
5. Sufficiently proficient in the English language to follow instructions from Reia

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of developmental, neurological or psychological impairment leading to functional disability
2. Vision or visual field impairment that interferes with the use of the AR headset
3. Severe photosensitivity that makes use of the AR headset uncomfortable
4. History of visually provoked seizures
5. Hearing aids
6. Cardiac pacemaker
7. Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD)
