LEAP Motion Technology and Psychology: A Mini-Review on Hand Movements Sensing for Neurodevelopmental and Neurocognitive Disorders

Abstract: Technological advancement is constantly evolving, and it is also developing in the mental health field. Various applications, often based on virtual reality, have been implemented to carry out psychological assessments and interventions, using innovative human–machine interaction systems. In this context, the LEAP Motion sensing technology has raised interest, since it allows for more natural interactions with digital contents, via an optical tracking of hand and finger movements. Recent research has considere… Show more

“…Sustaining the psychological wellbeing of frontline healthcare workers as they continue to provide the best patient-centred care is crucial in an emergency context (Fino et al, 2021). Technology-based tools and solutions in healthcare settings appear to be quite promising in terms of reducing barriers and alleviating distress (Colombini, Duradoni, Carpi, Vagnoli, & Guazzini, 2021) which are especially exacerbated by pandemic related measures. While virtual communication technologies facilitating remote interactions between HCWs, patients and family will likely be in the rise in healthcare organizations beyond the current pandemic, it is crucial that they be complemented by skill enhancement training for healthcare professionals especially in terms of communicating online and communicating difficult topics with patients and families.…”

“…The marker-free low-cost systems for optical motion capturing, e.g. Leap Motion (Leap, San Francisco, CA, USA) and Kinect (Microsoft, Redmond, WA, USA), are investigated by many research groups as the promising solution [46][47][48][49]. However, there are significant challenges to adapt them for everyday clinical use, as these model-based systems suppose natural hand movements that are not always present in stroke survivors, especially in the subacute phase.…”

“…Conversely, participants with cerebral palsy and rare genetic diseases (e.g., Rett syndrome) were still uninvestigated as well as request and choice opportunities, leisure options, and challenging behaviors considered as a primary or a secondary outcome (Lancioni et al, 2007 , 2008 ; Chiapparino et al, 2011 ; Stasolla et al, 2017 ; Perilli et al, 2019 ). The contribution of Colombini et al ( 2021 ) combined technological solutions for NDD, neurodegenerative diseases and acquired brain injuries.…”

“…Dependent measures included self-regulation and the acceptance of the technology. Colombini et al ( 2021 ) generated and examined the LEAP Motion technology. The LEAP Motion controller represented a higher affordable USB capture device capable of detecting and recording, through a virtual reality-based system, natural interactions with digital contents, via an optic tracking of both hand and finger movements.…”
