dc.description.abstractStroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. In Portugal, the Portuguese Stroke Society (SPAVC) estimates that approximately three Portuguese individuals experience a stroke every hour, resulting in fatality for one and debilitating sequelae for another. The sequelae of stroke hinder patients from performing their normal daily activities, thereby affecting their quality of life. There are limited exercises that enable patients to autonomously improve their condition. Therefore, it is imperative to identify more effective treatments to enhance the quality of life for stroke patients. In this work, we describe the development of a rehabilitation device for the upper limb post-stroke. Conventional rehabilitation methods often possess disadvantages, primarily due to the use of repetitive exercises and bulky equipment requiring the assistance of a physiotherapist. However, the proposed device allows the patient to regain a certain level of autonomy in the affected limb through a game controlled by the upper limb. Additionally, the device records the patient's progress throughout the sessions, which can be monitored by a specialized healthcare professional. This rehabilitation device is expected to provide a more accessible and enjoyable approach to assist stroke patients in recovering their motor skills in the affected upper limb, thereby promoting a significant improvement in their quality of life.pt_PT
