Area of Science:

Rehabilitation Robotics
Human-Computer Interaction
Biomedical Engineering

Background:

Patients with Apraxia and Action Disorganization Syndrome (AADS) struggle with Activities of Daily Living (ADL) due to memory loss and difficulties with sequential tasks.
Accurate tracking of manual tasks is crucial for effective cognitive rehabilitation and assessing patient progress in ADL.
Existing motion capture systems can be expensive and complex to implement in clinical settings.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the suitability and cost-effectiveness of the KinectTM for Windows© device for tracking manual tasks in patients with AADS.
To compare the accuracy of KinectTM motion data against a high-fidelity ultrasonic motion capture system.
To assess the feasibility of using KinectTM for kinematic analysis in ADL rehabilitation.

Main Methods:

Utilized the KinectTM for Windows© device to capture motion data during manual tasks performed by patients with AADS.
Collected data from an ultrasonic motion capture system for comparative analysis.
Performed kinematic analysis on the collected motion data to assess movement patterns.

Main Results:

A moderate to strong correlation was found between the motion data captured by KinectTM and the ultrasonic system.
The KinectTM device proved to be a suitable and cost-effective solution for motion tracking in this context.
The system demonstrated ease of implementation for kinematic analysis relevant to ADL.

Conclusions:

KinectTM is a viable and affordable tool for monitoring manual task performance in cognitive rehabilitation for AADS.
The technology offers a practical approach to kinematic analysis for improving ADL execution in affected patients.
This research supports the integration of accessible motion capture technology in rehabilitation settings.
