Tele-Assessment

Leveraging Deep Learning to Assess Upper Limb Kinematics after Stroke with Off-the-shelf Webcams

We develop and validate a camera-based compensation classifier (“3C”) for tele-neurorehabilitation to discriminate normal arm-movements from those with compensation. The algorithm can be used with a webcam alone or in combination with inertial measurement unit (IMU).  This method enhances tele-rehabilitation and boosts the recovery process of the clients.
