Balance training system and control program for balance training system
11571609 · 2023-02-07 · ·

A balance training system includes a moving carriage moving on a moving surface by driving a driving unit, and calculates a load's center of gravity of the training person's feet on a boarding surface from the detected load. The system sets a stable range. The stable range is a range of the load's center. The training person is estimated to maintain upright on the boarding surface in the range. The system controls movement of the moving carriage in a mode selected between a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the driving unit drives under drive control predicting that the calculated load's center shifts within a first range set inside the stable range. In in the second mode, the driving unit drives under drive control predicting that the calculated load's center shifts to a second range set outside the first range inside the stable range.

MIRROR TREATMENT DEVICE AND MIRROR TREATMENT SYSTEM
20230032645 · 2023-02-02 ·

A mirror therapy device includes a first positioning assembly, a second positioning assembly and a transmission assembly connecting the first and second positioning assemblies. The first and second positioning assemblies are arranged in opposition to each other in such a manner that both are able to reciprocate. The first positioning assembly is configured for positioning of a healthy limb of a patient, and the second positioning assembly is configured for positioning of an affected limb of the patient. The transmission assembly is configured for power transmission between the first and second positioning assemblies so that the second positioning assembly moves in synchronization with the first positioning assembly under the action of the transmission assembly. A mirror therapy system includes the mirror therapy device and a display device. The mirror therapy system enables the healthy limb to drive movement of the affected limb to allow the affected limb to repeat the same movements as the healthy limb, thus establishing neural connections for synchronous vision, motor perception and proprioception of the patient's healthy and affected sides and better stimulating nerve recovery of the patient.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING VISUAL PERCEPTUAL TRAINING

Disclosed is a device for providing visual perceptual training including an output module and a controller that controls the output module such that the output module outputs an instruction message informing a trainee of a rule related to visual perceptual training, provides a training session for the visual perceptual training, and stores a result in the training session for evaluating cognitive ability of the trainee, wherein the controller may, in the training session, control the output module such that the output module sequentially displays visual objects, check a type of a response of the trainee, determine whether the checked response is correct according to the rule including the first condition and the second condition based on the attribute of the visual object, the display order of the visual object, and the type of the checked response, and output a feedback indicating that the checked response is correct.
