Virtual Rehabilitation MARS 3 project was invited for the exhibition "TechAbility: Revealing Possibility" held in the National Museum of Health + Medicine in Chicago.

Throughout the exhibition, visitors were engaged in hands-on, screen-based and physical activities that let them explore contemporary assistive technologies.
