Abstract
A method for motor training comprising: receiving from one or more sensors an orientation of a head mounted display of the subject; adapting a base video signal representing an avatar of the subject in a virtual reality to be displayed on the head mounted display wherein the avatar comprises a virtual limb corresponding to the limb that is injured; and sending the base video signal to the head mounted display for visualization. The method further comprises in response to a trigger signal from the subject, sending an exercise video signal representing the avatar in the virtual reality performing an exercise to start the visual rendering of the exercise in the head mounted display, even though the corresponding real limb is substantially immobile and provides no input at all. Such exercise is aimed at rehabilitation of the limb from the injury with the virtual limb corresponding to the immobile limb and it is displayed taking into account the orientation of the head mounted display. A computer program and computing systems for providing a treatment session for motor training are also disclosed.
