Lars Crawford demonstrates vHAB, a virtual reality device designed to assist stroke patients with physical therapy. Crawford was part of a student team that invented the device in the 2014 Tech Sandbox competition and further developed it at the CNT over the next few years. The Tech Sandbox was a precursor to today’s Neural Engineering Tech Studio course at the UW. In 2020, Crawford returned to the Center to be a teaching assistant for this course.
