Design, Fabrication and Testing of a Smart Sleeve for Upper Limb Tele-Rehabilitation Using a Novel Strain Sensor
The main objective of this study is to design a new fabric-based wearable tele-rehab system for automatic assessment of patients’ range of motion and quality of movements. This wearable system will consist of a lightweight stretchable sleeve that can accommodate frequent large stresses while keeping the functionality and durability of the device intact. In addition, an electronic system for data collection and a Graphical User Interface (GUI) will be designed for visualization. The proposed tele-rehabilitation system will recognize the type of activities and will count the number of repeats performed by the patients, automatically. This information will help the therapist for assigning new exercises and monitor the progress of the patients, remotely.
