Users' Perspectives on Haptic Technology Use in Hand Rehabilitation.
Augmented Human International Conference (AH)(2021)
Abstract
Haptics is a technology that registers touch by applying vibrations, motion, or forces to the user while interacting with robotic devices. The literature on the use of haptics in robots designed for upper extremity rehabilitation in stroke patients spans over the last two decades. Research focuses on clinical results without addressing users\u0027 perspectives. Therefore, this paper aimed to examine the users\u0027 views on using haptics to augment technology-enabled physiotherapy interventions. We analyzed 42 articles that involved haptics to find information about users\u0027 views and found that no studies included data on users\u0027 perspectives on haptics. Therefore, it is recommended that researchers collect qualitative data when studying the effect of haptic technologies so that user\u0027s perspectives are evidenced as part of the validation and clinical studies.
