Melody, a glove designed for post-stroke hemiplegic patients, integrates music creation into hand rehabilitation training. Without using screens, effective hand training actions like finger flexion and fist gripping are translated into corresponding instrumental music. Using music as a medium to fuel recovery motivation, Melody provides a scientifically grounded path to recovery that transforms monotonous rehabilitation into an active artistic experience.
