Summary

This study looks at whether using virtual reality (VR) with wearable sensors can help people with multiple sclerosis (MS) improve their walking while using a leg brace. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and enjoyable for patients, and if it gives doctors better information about walking ability. The study will involve 12 participants with MS who will use a VR headset to practice walking tasks in a safe, simulated environment.
