Abstract
A method and system for augmented neurologic rehabilitation (ANR) of a patient is disclosed. The ANR system generates rhythmic auditory stimulus (RAS) and a visual augmented reality (AR) scene that are synchronized according to a common beat tempo and output to the patient during a therapy session. Sensor worn by the patient capture biomechanical data relating to repetitive movements performed by the patient in sync with the AR visual content and RAS. A critical thinking algorithm analyzes the sensor data to determine a spatial and temporal relationship of the patient's movements relative to the visual and audio elements and determine a level of entrainment of the patient and progression toward clinical/therapeutic goals. Additionally, a 3D AR modelling module configures the processor to dynamically adjust the augmented-reality visual and audio content output to the patient based on the determined level of entrainment and whether a training goal has been achieved.
