Oculus VR
Oculus VR: During the first visit, the Oculus headset will be placed on the stroke survivor's head and demonstrate how to use the headset. participant will be then allowed to play a game using the hand controllers for up to 30 minutes. Finally, a copy of exercises for their home rehabilitation program will be provided. During the next rehabilitation visits, a trained research assistant will guide the stroke survivor with using the gaming headset. The session will be stopped every 20 minutes to make sure that the stroke survivor is feeling well and to give them a break. The stroke survivor may stop the session at any time. This session will last for an hour.
