    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • Perceptual training is crucial for individuals with neurological conditions.
    • Existing tools may lack adaptability or specific functionalities.
    • The Visual Tracking Machine was developed to address these limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate the Visual Tracking Machine for perceptual training.
    • To detail the construction and application of the device.
    • To assess its efficacy in improving visual attention, eye motility, and coordination.

    Main Methods:

    • The Visual Tracking Machine was designed for easy construction and manual operation.
    • It allows control over stimulus movement (speed, direction, smoothness) across the entire visual field.

  • Activities target visual attention, midline crossing, hemianopsia compensation, neglect, eye-hand coordination, and motor planning.

    • Main Results:

    • The device was successfully used in a one-year trial period.
    • It demonstrated potential as a valuable addition to perceptual training programs.
    • Patients were motivated by challenging and varied game-based tasks.

    Conclusions:

    • The Visual Tracking Machine is a potentially useful, manually powered tool for perceptual training.
    • It offers customizable features to address specific visual and motor deficits.
    • Further integration into rehabilitation programs is recommended.
