Abstract

In this paper we present and discuss the design, implementation and evaluation of a visual programming environment. The proposed application allows authoring of therapeutic training sequences for the CareToy system, a hardware system developed for the purpose of in-home rehabilitation training for infants, aiming to improve the motor skills of preterm infants diagnosed with neurological conditions.

Keywords: CareToy Tele-rehabilitation Preterm infant stimulation Early intervention Motor skills Visual programming
