Novel rehabilitation device to measure upper limb function after a neurological injury: MIP: ReHaptix GmbH

Abstract (German)

Accurate measurement of motor function is crucial for the implementation of a targeted therapy plan for|patients with a neurological injury and for tracking progress. The aim of this project is to evaluate the|possibility of reconstructing upper limb movement trajectories during manipulation using an inertial sensor|based device (consumer grade MEMs IMU). This concept will be built at the ZHAW and will be further|developed by ReHaptix GmbH to include it in its product line.
