Physical activity monitoring based on wearable technology combining inertial and barometric pressure sensors

Fabien Massé

Stroke, or cerebral-vascular accident is the leading cause of disabilities in the western world. It primarily affects mobility due to a degradation of principal motor functions such as balance and gait. This reduction of mobility directly impacts the spect ...

Non-invasive brain stimulation: an interventional tool for enhancing behavioral training after stroke

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Maximilian Jonas Wessel

Stroke is the leading cause of disability among adults. Motor deficit is the most common impairment after stroke. Especially, deficits in fine motor skills impair numerous activities of daily life. Re-acquisition of motor skills resulting in improved or mo ...

A Ball-Screw Driven Motorized Hip Orthosis

Hannes Bleuler, Reymond Clavel, Mohamed Bouri, Jeremy Olivier, Amalric Louis Ortlieb

In this paper we present a motorized hip orthosis to assist elderly people while walking, stair climbing and during the sit-to-stand transitions. The design is based on biomechanics considerations. Ranges of motion, velocities and torques of the hip joint ...

Detection of postural transitions using trunk-worn inertial and barometric pressure sensor: application to stroke patients

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Fabien Massé

To better understand how rehabilitation therapy of stroke survivors is transferred in patient’s daily life, activity monitors exist but require multiple wearable devices and may hinder patient’s movements. In this study, the use of a single wearable barome ...
