DART Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Augmented Reality Multi-Modal TrainingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Multi-modal training will be administered via the Microsoft HoloLens 2 augmented reality head set. Augmented reality allows user to see the real world, and inserts holograms into the environment. For example, the user could see boxes on the ground that they need to step around when walking. The boxes are not real, but rather a hologram that only the user can see. The augmented reality device will instruct the participant on the motor and cognitive task that should be performed simultaneously in a similar manner to the physical therapist in the traditional multi-modal training group. The intervention will be overseen by a physical therapist.
Group II: Traditional Multi-Modal TrainingActive Control1 Intervention
A physical therapist will provide 1:1 multi-modal training. Multi-modal training is the simultaneous performance of a motor and a cognitive task (i.e. marching while answering math questions)
