MIRRORED MOTION STROKE REHABILITATION SYSTEM
INNOVATIVE PRODUCT DESIGN & PROTOTYPING
A leading hospital medical research team required a development partner to design and manufacture a series of stroke rehabilitation devices based on Bimanual Training, an innovative concept that helps retrain the brain and restore function to the affected side of the body following a stroke.
Product Design Development, In-house Prototyping & Manufacturing
- Presented with conceptual models, JAKTOOL partnered with the medical team to develop modular devices that could be easily transported and used for in-home care
- JAKTOOL developed novel rehabilitation devices with easy-to-use gearboxes that allow for coupled and de-coupled movements
- Sensors were installed on all critical-movement axes to collect data and provide remote monitoring of patient progress
Result:
A pilot study validated that this system improved patients’ range of motion and quality of life. These devices co-developed by JAKTOOL and the Mirrored Motion project team have set a new standard of care for stroke rehabilitation.
