The description focuses on virtual reality games controlled by a physical device and does not mention any AI/ML components or functionalities.
Yes
The device is indicated for stroke rehabilitation and maintaining/increasing range of motion, which are therapeutic uses.
No
The device is described as an "exercise system" used for "upper limb rehabilitation" and "muscle re-education." Its function is to facilitate "therapeutic bilateral movement exercises" through a game controller and computer games. There is no mention of diagnostic capabilities such as identifying, assessing, or monitoring a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is comprised of a lightweight polymer handlebar with a wireless game controller and a fixed hand grip, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the Able-X is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Able-X Function: The Able-X is an exercise system used for physical rehabilitation of the upper limb in stroke patients. It uses virtual reality and a game controller to facilitate movement and exercise.
- No Specimen Analysis: The description of the Able-X does not mention any analysis of biological specimens. Its function is entirely focused on physical interaction and exercise.
Therefore, the Able-X falls under the category of a physical therapy or rehabilitation device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Able-X is an exercise system that uses virtual reality to promote therapeutic bilateral movement exercises through use of a wireless hand held game controller and computer games. The Able-X is comprised of a lightweight polymer handlebar with a wireless game controller mounted at one end and a fixed hand vertical hand grip at the other end of the bar. The wireless controller communicates via a USB receiver dongle to a computer installed with therapeutic exercise games. Game play of the therapeutic exercises is controlled through the game controller and displayed in real-time on the computer screen. The Able-X therapeutic exercise games are provide on a CD or can be downloaded directly through the internet. The Able-X does not include a separate console and is intended to be operated directly through a user supplied computer that meets minimum processing and operating system requirements.
