Upper-limb rehabilitation training for hemiplegic patients has been primarily conducted by human therapists, and, hence, their use of training methods and conditions strongly depends on their expertise. The force control and motion sensing functions of rehabilitation robots are expected to be used for the qualitative training/assessment in the next-generation computerized rehabilitation. We have developed a desktop rehabilitation robot for upper limbs (D-SEMUL). In this study, we investigated the effect of the resultant view after rehabilitation games of the D-SEUL by measuring electroencephalogram (EEG). The EEG was analyzed with sLoreta, which is a kind of a solution of inverse problem. The result shows that the target line shown on the resultant view can improve motivation of training, however its effect cannot continue for a long time.
