Abstract
In this paper the concept of 'Mechatronics-based Rehabilitation at
Home' is presented. The idea is to transfer as much rehabilitation
care as possible from hospitals and rehabilitation centres to
patients' homes while keeping the effectiveness and quality of
rehabilitation process as we know it today. Such concept naturally
heavily relies on technological innovation, especially on control
systems and communication technologies. Only then is it possible
that the patients perform the rehabilitation exercises remotely and
autonomously and the rehabilitation specialists and physiotherapists
still have enough information about the progress in the patient to
adjust or change the treatment as necessary. Software tools
addressing the challenging requirements are presented.
