🧪 Therapy Occupational Therapy

Interactive 3D occupational-therapy simulator: run a Nine-Hole Peg Test with adjustable motor control, tremor and an assistive grip cuff, and watch Fitts'-Law movement time and a power-law-of-practice learning curve emerge trial by trial.

This simulation models a real occupational-therapy assessment, the Nine-Hole Peg Test, used to measure and retrain fine motor dexterity after stroke, injury or neurological impairment. A virtual patient repeatedly transfers nine pegs from a tray into a pegboard; each transfer's timing follows Fitts' Law for aimed hand movement, while tremor and spasticity introduce a real chance of dropping a peg mid-transfer. Adjust the patient's motor control level, tremor severity, task difficulty (peg width) and an assistive grip cuff, then run trials to watch completion time, drop rate and a power-law-of-practice learning curve evolve exactly as they would across sessions of real rehabilitation therapy.

⚙ Under the hood

This simulation illustrates occupational therapy techniques used to improve a patient's functional abilities and quality of life. It demonstrates various exercises and activities designed to address specific physical or cognitive challenges.
