Robot helper story for children with movement challenges
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether interacting with a robot helper named Nao can help children with movement difficulties learn new skills. The robot tells a story and guides activities to improve motor and thinking abilities.
