Bioengineering Application in Kinesitherapy of Children with Lower Limbs Dysfunction

Abstract:

The work presents an innovative, interactive device used to support the rehabilitation process in small children with lower limbs dysfunction. The presented equipment combines movement therapy with simultaneous psychological stimulation of the child. EEG sensor measures the activity of the child’s brain waves and at the same time functions as the controller of the rehabilitation process. Application of the discussed equipment in the process of rehabilitation of children supports their optimal development within individual limits.
