Wearable sensor fusion for motion analysis
Real-time control of neural stimulation for stroke patients.
Real-time analysis of movement kinematics can benefit multiple different strategies in rehabilitation after stroke, including allowing closed-loop brain stimulation. Use of inertial measurement units (IMUs) allows detection of movement and extraction of kinematic features, but application in real-time remains challenging. This project will develop algorithms for real-time movement data analysis and feature extraction in typical rehabilitation tasks and general real-life movements. In turn, these algorithms will be applied to control novel brain stimulation approaches in stroke neurorehabilitation.
