The Negami app represents a promising extension by adding AR to traditional exploration training for spatial neglect. Through participants' natural interaction with the physical surrounding environment during playful tasks, side effects as symptoms of cybersickness are minimized and patients' motivation appeared to markedly increase. The use of AR in cognitive rehabilitation programs and the treatment of spatial neglect seems promising and should receive further investigation.
