AbstractFoot-drop is a common symptom among post stroke patients. It is characterized by the inability of a person to raise his/her foot at the ankle and to drag the toes during swing. To overcome such disability, long-term rehabilitation is crucial. However, such treatment might not be accessible to many people, especially those living far from the cities where most of the rehabilitation centers are located. In this paper, we present our interactive rehabilitation system called E-Wobble that consists of a modified version of a wobble board mounted with sensors and actuators. The proposed system aims to help patients with foot-drop symptoms so they can train their ankles and toes from home. The E-Wobble tangible interface is associated with a 2D golf game that motivates the patients to spend more time exercising while having fun.
