    Area of Science:

    • Neurorehabilitation
    • Human-Computer Interaction
    • Biomechanics

    Background:

    • Post-stroke sensorimotor impairments significantly impact daily activities.
    • Bilateral upper limb training (BULT) is crucial for functional recovery, yet its superiority over unilateral training (UULT) is debated.
    • Existing BULT methods face challenges in accessibility and sensitivity for detecting subtle skill deficits.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel, accessible tablet-based BULT system.
    • To assess the system's effectiveness in stroke rehabilitation.
    • To determine the system's sensitivity in detecting differences in bilateral upper limb skill.

    Main Methods:

    • A tablet-based BULT application with a tetherball circling task in a virtual reality environment.
    • Integration of wearable inertial sensors (ISs) on participants' wrists.
    • Inclusion of 18 stroke patients and 18 healthy controls performing rhythmic tablet tilting.

    Main Results:

    • Significant differences were observed in task performance, asymmetry, and coordination characteristics via repeated measures ANOVA.
    • The system demonstrated effectiveness in rehabilitation tasks.
    • The method proved sensitive to subtle variations in bilateral upper limb skill levels.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed tablet-based BULT method is effective for stroke rehabilitation.
    • This user-friendly and accessible approach can reliably assess subtle bilateral upper limb skill deficits.
    • The system holds potential for advancing BULT research and clinical practice.
