    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Speech and Language Pathology

    Background:

    • Auditory processing is crucial for language perception; deficits are linked to language disorders.
    • Motor imitation of rhythmic sequences, like tapping, can indicate auditory processing deficits.
    • Analyzing temporal and intensity aspects of tapping offers insights into these deficits.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and preliminarily test a novel, low-cost tapping device.
    • The device aims to record both tapping duration and intensity for rhythmic sequence analysis.
    • To assess the device's efficacy in detecting touch and intensity parameters.

    Main Methods:

    • The device utilizes a Force Sensing Resistor and an Arduino UNO board.
    • Validation involved testing with different sampling frequencies (fs) in 10 healthy young adults.
    • Two testing procedures were employed to evaluate touch and intensity detection.

    Main Results:

    • The device performed well when programmed with sampling frequencies of 50Hz and 100Hz.
    • Both temporal (duration) and intensity parameters of tapping were successfully extracted.
    • The device demonstrated efficacy in detecting touch and intensity.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed tapping device shows potential for analyzing rhythmic sequence imitation and production.
    • This low-cost tool could support the diagnosis, training, and rehabilitation of language disorders.
    • Further development could lead to a valuable instrument for clinical and research applications.
