N2 - Regular training exercises are fundamental to regain functional use of arm and hand control after a stroke. With the SCRIPT system, the patient can practice hand excercising independently at home by playing gesture controlled games using a robotic glove (orthosis). The system could offer prolonged rehabilitation out of the clinic, with low cost treatment. In the first version of the system (Script 1), a set of therapeutic games were developed within the project and tested in formative and summative evaluations. The main findings indicate that motivational aspects play a major role. The main issues detected concerns the challenge for the patients to understand and remember the correct gestures. Following a User Centered Design process, these findings helped to improve the new version of the system (Script 2).
