Not only the system can perform passive range of motion exercises for impaired hand, but also can perform mirror therapy for pinching and hand grasping motions under the guidance of the posture sensing glove worn on patient’s functional hand. Moreover, the framework and operation flow of the developed system has been and delineated in this paper. Practical results with human subjects are shown in this paper to examine the usability of proposed system, trial experiment of advance mirror therapy that use the proposed system to interact with realities is also presented in this paper.
