Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of an augmented reality-based mirror therapy system (MirrARm), developed using sensor-based tracking and visual feedback principles, on upper extremity motor recovery and functional activity levels in patients with stroke. Research Questions This study seeks to address the following questions: Does the MirrARm system improve upper extremity motor recovery and functional activity levels in patients with stroke? Are the effects of the MirrARm system on upper extremity motor recovery and functional activity levels greater than those of conventional mirror therapy in patients with stroke? Study Design and Comparison The MirrARm system will be compared with conventional mirror therapy to evaluate its effectiveness in patients with stroke. Participants and Procedures Participants will take part in a treatment program administered three days per week for a total duration of eight weeks. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline (Week 0), at mid-intervention (Week 4), and at the end of the intervention period (Week 8).
