“…Once the sanding block moved, the optical sensor IC automatically captured movement data on the desk surface at a sampling frequency of 1 kHz, calculated each position, and calculated the movement volume in the direction of the x and y-axis. The detailed calculation related to the position can be referred to in the report collection of the year of 2010 at the Hyogo Prefecture Rehabilitation Center (Hyogo Assist Tech) [17] [18]. Figure 3 demonstrates the overview of the operational flowchart in the block diagram which comprised the developed device and control program.…”

Many stroke patients nowadays prefer home rehabilitation, which limits their access to proper rehabilitation equipment, treatment, or assessment by therapists. Currently, the rehabilitation programs neglect to maintain a patient's motivation in doing rehabili tation exercises. The programs also lack a monitoring system to evaluate the patients' performance quantitatively although this is the most cru cial element in rehabilitation. In order to solve these problems, we have developed a novel measurement system for upper limb motor disorder rehabilitation using an optical sensor. This system consists of an optical sensor device, a personal computer and a computerized calculated program for upper limb locus position. The optical sensor detects the user's motions and calculates position and velocity. The sanding block position, velocity and the motion length of the block during the sanding task of five subjects with motor funct ion disorder were measured. The accuracy of the trajectories was similar in all the actual measured subjects. These outcomes have a potential for the development of rehabilitation training programs and evaluation methods.
