Abstract:In recent years, gamification has become very popular for rehabilitating different cognitive and motor problems. It has been shown that rehabilitation is effective when it starts early enough and it is intensive and repetitive. However, the success of rehabilitation depends also on the motivation and perseverance of patients during treatment. Adding serious games to the rehabilitation procedure will help the patients to overcome the monotonicity of the treatment procedure. On the other hand, if a variety of games can be used with a robotic rehabilitation system, it will help to define tasks with different levels of difficulty with greater variety. In this paper we introduce a procedure for connecting a rehabilitation robot to several web-based games. In other words, an interface is designed that connects the robot to a computer through a USB port. To validate the usefulness of the proposed approach, a researcher designed survey was used to get feedback from several users. The results demonstrate that having several games besides rehabilitation makes the procedure of rehabilitation entertaining.
