A rehab device that uses repetitive bilateral arm training:  The “Tailwind”

If you’re primary concern in your stroke recovery is arm function, you might look into this product:  The “Tailwind.”  It uses repetitive active or active-assisted motion of both arms in a rhythmic way, cued by a metronome.  It seems to be a fairly portable device, simple to use, and from the studies listed on their website, seems to have a good bit of research showing it’s effectiveness.

You can watch videos of the device in use at this link:
