| Project Name | Dheeraj – Virtual Reality based Device for hand function rehabilitation of neuro-motor patients (MMP015 202 WP C.3) |
| Project Description | Project Dheeraj is a CSIR Mission Mode Project focused on developing an advanced medical intervention for patients suffering from neuro-motor impairments (such as stroke or cerebral palsy). The project integrates Virtual Reality (VR) with haptic feedback and motion tracking to create an immersive rehabilitation environment. By gamifying hand exercises, the device encourages "neuroplasticity"—the brain's ability to rewire itself—helping patients regain fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. This high-priority mission aims to bridge the gap between clinical therapy and home-based recovery through affordable, data-driven technology. |
