System And Method For Vibrotactile Guided Motional Training
US Patent:
2009006, Mar 5, 2009
Filed:
Aug 29, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/201778
Inventors:
Bruce J. P. Mortimer - Maitland FL, US
Gary A. Zets - Maitland FL, US
Karen L. Atkins - Celebration FL, US
Gary A. Zets - Maitland FL, US
Karen L. Atkins - Celebration FL, US
International Classification:
A63B 26/00
US Classification:
482142
Abstract:
Motional training is achieved by providing a subject with vibrotactile feedback in response to an attempt by the subject to perform predetermined motions. In particular, an attempt by the subject to perform at least one predetermined motion is monitored using sensors, such as force plates or inertial sensors. The sensor signals indicate results of the attempt by the subject to perform the at least one predetermined motion, and a variance between the at least one predetermined motion and the results of the attempt by the subject to perform the at least one predetermined motion is determined. Vibrotactile signals are then sent to the subject by activating one or more actuators coupled to the subject, where the one or more actuators are spatially oriented with respect to the subject to indicate one or more directions. The vibrotactile signals indicate the variance with respect to the one or more directions.
