| Abstract | Robotic therapy has been shown to increase the range of motion, strength, and agility of arm movements in chronic stroke patients, and many researches in this field have been carried out. In this paper, we are proposing a new approach of active rehabilitation for upper limbs. We suppose one of the subject's hands is intact, the other one is injured, and the intact hand can direct the mechanical assistance of his injured hand with this system. We have designed a virtual force model, through manipulating the haptic effectors of haptic devices with one or two hands, a virtual object could be controlled to track a pseudorandom signal in a virtual environment, and the different tracking performance for the two conditions will be appraised. During the process of rehabilitation, the real-time vision feedback of virtual environment will be transmitted to operator's eyes, and the corresponding force feedback of haptic device will be transmitted to operator's hands. A preliminary tracking experiment was conducted wherein healthy subjects, the tracking performance with the combined efforts of two hands is testified better than one hand alone. In the further experiment, we will test the hypothesis the combined efforts of two hands can improve the rehabilitation performance |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
