This paper integrates an unobtrusive and affordable sensing technology with machine learning methods to discriminate between healthy and pathological gait patterns as a result of stroke or acquired brain injury. A feature analysis is used to identify the role of each body part in separating pathological patterns from healthy patterns. Gait features, including the orientations of the hips and spine...
MyWalk is a mobile app to enable gait rehabilitation in the community. Particularly, it can be used to treat and assess step-time asymmetry (STA) - which occurs when the amount of time between consecutive heel strikes is uneven. Temporal gait asymmetry, of which STA is a form, is common post-stroke and could result in difficulties such as joint degeneration or musculoskeletal pain. By enabling STA...
Stroke is one of the major causes of permanent adult disability. Stroke frequently affects motor control of the arm, leading to diffculties in doing activities of daily living. This research focuses on developing an upper limb rehabilitation robotic prototype through user-centered design to aid stroke survivors in rehabilitating their arm. To gather requirements from end users, stroke therapy sessions...
