A survey of assistive devices for cerebral palsy patients

Published: 06 June 2012 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper, we present a survey of recent advances in assistive technologies used to foster rehabilitation and improved quality of life for children with Cerebral palsy. The survey focuses specifically on robotics and interactive games used in rehabilitative therapy, as well as general electronic assistive devices for everyday use. The systems and clinical studies discussed show that Cerebral palsy treatment can benefit greatly from emerging technologies.
