- a computer device with a dedicated software and an associated control unit to provide a patient's self operation of said tDCS apparatus
- at least a camera to capture at least a partial image of said patient; and
a screen to present to said patient a combination of said partial patient's own image and a complementary image provided by an animated digital image representative of a movement of a body injured part of the patient capable of generating a visual illusion suitable to correct mismatching between motor commands and sensory feedback.
