Objectives
Multisensor data fusion for
realtime feedback in neurological rehabilitation.
Labmedinfo led the development of
MyHeart's Concept NR:
Neurological Rehabilitation -
one of the four applications selected
to become a Product Concept. Concept
NR provides a telemedicine platform
for the early recovery of
neurologically-ill patients.
(Watch demo!)
Concept NR platform
supports physicians and therapists in
the delivery of personalized recovery
exercise plans. The recovery process
supports both motor
rehabilitation exercises,
which are monitored with kinestetic
strain-sensor garments,
and cognitive
rehabilitation, based on
speech-therapy exercises.
Description of the
work
The key challenges
for lowering the mortality rate in
CVD and their related costs are by
successful guiding, informing and
motivating the citizen to adapt to a
permanently healthier life style and
the early diagnosis of acute
events.
Intelligent clothes,
paired with user feedback devices
form an integrated MyHeart
NeuroRehab system. The project
combines novel wearable technologies
(textile and electronic sensors,
personalised algorithms, on-body
computing), real-time feedback, and
gesture recognition via sensor-fusion
algorithms, in order to make a
prototype application for continued
care after neurological events.
