Upper limb rehabilitation training system and method using virtual reality technology

Abstract

The invention provides an upper limb rehabilitation training system and method using a virtual reality technology. The system provided by the invention comprises a hand movement data collection module, a game engine module, an interaction engine module and a virtual reality equipment module, wherein the hand movement data collection module collects the hand action during the patient movement tracking, and synchronizes the hand action to a game engine module; the hand action information of the patient reoccurs in the virtual environment of the virtual reality equipment module; then, the operation on an article in the game through the hand action of the patient is realized through the interaction engine module. The virtual reality technology is mainly used for providing the repeated practiceand real-time feedback for the rehabilitation training, so that a patient has strong immersing feeling; the rehabilitation training enthusiasm of the patient is improved, so that the patient is willing to actively take part in the rehabilitation training; the efficiency and the effect of the rehabilitation training are further improved; the rehabilitation training time of the patient is shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical and health technologies, in particular, to an upper limb rehabilitation training system and method using virtual reality technology. Background technique [0002] Neurological trauma such as traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, stroke and other cerebrovascular diseases are the leading causes of physical disability in people. Patients with brain injuries, spinal cord injuries generally lose control of upper body parts. In order for patients with upper limb movement disorders to obtain the best rehabilitation results, rehabilitation training must be targeted and challenging. At the same time, rehabilitation training is an arduous process, and patients will only be effective if they persist repeatedly. Therefore, how to keep patients from feeling bored during training is also very important. At present, in addition to the traditional rehabilitation therapist to provide hands-on training to pa...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, these rehabilitation training methods have obvious disadvantages: patients can only passively participate in rehabilitation training, and the process is very boring

Therefore, the initiative and enthusiasm of patients to participate in training is not strong, and the effect of training is not ideal

At the same time, a rehabilitation therapist cannot carry out rehabilitation training for multiple patients at the same time, which greatly wastes manpower and material resources
