Polyhedral playing card set

Abstract

Provided is a polyhedral playing card set for a pegboard used for rehabilitation activities such as sensorimotor function therapy, cognition therapy, occupational therapy, etc. for nerve palsy patients or hemiplegic patients who have suffered neurological damage. The polyhedral playing cards are matched and inserted into polyhedral recesses formed in the pegboard. Each polyhedral card includes a card design with images and characters, and braille for the visually impaired formed on one side thereof. Because card designs (i.e., playing card designs) including images and characters are represented, patients with stroke-induced grip weakness or hemiplegic nerve palsy can enjoy a game of poker, etc. played with the polyhedral cards using one hand. Due to one side of each polyhedral card having braille formed thereon, each card can be haptically discerned from other cards, which enables participation in card games by the visually impaired.
