The Bright Arm Duo is a low-friction robotic rehabilitation table that adaptably trains dual arm movement and grasp through interaction with serious games. In early sub-acute phase post-stroke, N=3


experimental group received conventional rehabilitation plus 12 BrightArm Duo sessions, each inducing up to 600 arm and hand repetitions. N=9

control group received conventional rehabilitation only. Improvement for the experimental group was better than controls across 11 of 12 functional metrics and activities of daily living (p=0.006)
