Abstract
Embodiments of the presently described device, system and method support upper extremity therapy through a control device. In various embodiments, the control device is provided as a central hub with atomic elements extending outwardly thereof, and the control device can incorporate a movement interpretation circuit, a touch detection circuit and/or one or more sensory transducers. In various embodiments, the control device is interoperable with a valence, an external computing device and a display device. Embodiments of the external computing device are operable to render a graphical depiction of simulated objects in a virtual world upon receiving a transmission of sensed human grasping of one or more atomic elements.
