A Multi-agent Body Tracking Application Framework Applied to Physical and Neurofunctional Rehabilitation.

Stroke is one of the most disabling diseases today, so investigating methods for rehabilitation of post-stroke patients is of utmost importance. Thus, significant benefits can be achieved by using body tracking systems and virtual environments. However, the development of such applications involves a large set of requirements, such as the construction of virtual environments, the interaction devices, and the storage and processing of data collected during rehabilitation sessions. This paper presents a multi-agent framework that abstracts the difficulties involved in developing applications using body tracking devices and virtual environments in neuromotor and neurofunctional rehabilitation.
