Augmented reality balance training for fall prevention in older adults
This study tests a new augmented reality (AR) balance training program designed to help older adults improve balance and prevent falls. Participants will use AR technology while doing exercises at home, and the study will track their progress over time.

This trial tests whether using virtual reality plus occupational therapy can help older adults reduce their risk of falling and becoming frail. You'll use a VR headset during rehab sessions at the residence.
This study tests different intensities of balance training that helps older adults react quickly to trips or slips. It aims to find the most effective training to improve balance and reduce fall risk.
This study tests a low-cost balance training platform that uses augmented reality to help people with balance problems from stroke or other brain conditions. It aims to see if the platform is easy and safe to use at home with a training partner.
This study tests a new type of training that uses augmented reality (like a video game you see through special glasses) to help improve your balance and walking after a stroke. It might be a good fit if you had a single stroke more than 3 months ago and can already walk a little on your own.
This trial tests whether an augmented reality exercise program can help older adults stay active and healthy. It is designed for people who are 60 or older, live independently, and have no major health problems that would make exercise unsafe.
This study tests a new balance training system that uses sensors and artificial intelligence to create personalized exercises. It aims to help older adults improve their balance and prevent falls.
