Ambient Intelligence for Rehabilitation: A Survey

Abstract

Rehabilitation is defined as a set of measures that assist individuals who experience, or are likely to experience, disability to achieve and maintain optimal functioning in interaction with their environments. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) refers to a digital environment that proactively, but sensibly, supports people in their daily lives. AmI is useful in order to rehabilitate patients. In this paper, a survey of AmI for rehabilitation is presented.
