HEROES: Human Extremity Robotic Rehabilitation and Outcome Enhancement for Stroke

HEROES is a multidisciplinary neurophysiological \& neural rehabilitation engineering project, developed by the Lab of Medical Physics \& Digital Innovation, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Science Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and supported by a Neurosurgical Department. The website for the project can be accessed at https://heroes.med.auth.gr. The investigation's primary objectives include the development, testing and optimization of an intervention based on multiple immersive man-machine interfaces offering rich feedback, that include a) mountable robotic arm controlled with wireless Brain-Computer Interface and b) wearable robotics jacket \& gloves in combination with a serious game application and c) augmented reality module for the presentation of the previous two, as well as the development and validation of a self-paced neuro-rehabilitation protocol for patients after chronic stroke with severe residual motor disability.
