Abstract:
The present disclosure describes a system of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags paired with RF proximity sensors and movement sensors for measuring the movement and use of objects in an environment. The movement gives an indication of the user's ability to use his or her motor skills in a medical or recovery setting, or any other setting using a variety of objects. Data may be read, stored and processed to represent position, speed and movement of the objects by a critical body part, such as a limb, analyzed and plotted, to gauge a patient's improvement.
