Abstract

Post-stroke therapeutic games are considered to be a promising rehabilitation tool since they can enhance the rehabilitation outcomes by creating a motivating environment. A therapeutic game could provide a personalized rehabilitation session in which the training intensity, duration, and challenges could be adapted to patient’s abilities and training needs. This chapter presents a generic adaptation approach that aims to customize the therapeutic game’s experience. The objective is to provide the readers with a design steering method that takes into account practical issues related to the adaptation of post-stroke therapeutic games.
