Observations of spontaneous kicking patterns in infants have presented valuable insights into their development. At times, these kicking patterns can detect potential developmental delays in at-risk infants to help support diagnosis and intervention. However, the prevalence of developmental disabilities has increased and a protocol for early diagnosis is still not widely available outside of direct...
Previous studies have shown that external corrective feedback provided to individuals undergoing physical therapy sessions increases the efficacy of their intervention protocols, thus allowing for the individual to rapidly improve on their performance. However, direct feedback is typically provided by an expert therapist during weekly or monthly visits, which limits improvement on a daily basis. As...
For individuals with a motor skill disorder, repetition of recommended therapy exercises is essential for motor improvement. Moreover, external feedback of performance is an important component of therapy such that individuals can correct their exercises and improve their performance. However, direct feedback is typically only provided by an expert therapist during weekly or monthly therapy sessions,...
In the rehabilitation field, determining the effectiveness of an intervention protocol begins by comparing the individual's movement characteristics against a baseline. In most settings, this baseline is determined through clinical studies involving a range of patients belonging to the same demographic group. Unfortunately, this leads to a process that is difficult to repeat for all patient demographics,...
This paper presents a method to control the speed of a separately excited D.C. motor using a D.C. to D.C. converter. The energy source of the system is a Fuel Cell (FC), for which a mathematical model describing its electrical characteristics is also presented. By controlling the duty cycle of the converter, the input power of the motor is also controlled; thus controlling the speed of the motor....
