Abstract
It is presented a 3D Virtual system with a haptic device that allows the interaction between a user and a virtual environment developed in Unity3D. This System was designed for rehabilitation of paretic hands in adult people with Stroke; the virtual environment was developed considering a daily life’s activity (watering plants in pots). The system was used by five people with mild and moderate Stroke according to ASWRTH 1+ scale, which completed the exercise showed in the virtual application. Patients performed a usability test SUS with outcomes (79, 5 ± 3, 67) this allows to define that the system has a good acceptance for rehabilitation.
