October 23rd, 2009 SDP10 - Preliminary Design Review Motion Analyzer for Physical Therapy (MAPT) Arjuna Baratham (CSE) - Sean Klaiber (EE) - James Rutter (EE) - Constantina Tyes (EE) Professor Soules Advisor, Senior Lecturer, ECE
Outline • Problem Statement • Design • Timeline/MDR Deliverables • Team Roles
Problem Statement Reliable Quantitative Data in Physical Therapy (PT) can only be Collected with a One-on-One Patient/Therapist Interaction - Leads to multiple visits that are time consuming and costly - PT may be skeptical of the reliability of data if not present
Solution Create a simple,inexpensive, and portable device that can accurately measure physical therapy related motion - Provide exercise feedback to user with simple interface - Log exercise data for PT to analyze patient's progress - Record reliable data to ensure PT's trust in device - Reduce number of visits to the clinic
Outline • Problem Statement • Design • Timeline/MDR Deliverables • Team Roles
The Wireless Sensor • Measures Range of Motion • Attached to the patient’s leg • Lightweight • Non-restrictive Φ Φ Φ Φ
The Wireless Sensor • Accelerometers • Measures acceleration in 3D • Data used to calculate pitch, velocity, and position Zigbee Transmitter • 10-30 meter range • Low power output • Affordable
PSFD Functionality • Receives physical therapy exercise data • Compares motion data to pre-defined baseline • Provides feedback to the user • Electronic display of results and device status • Stores data in a removable memory card
Design Alternatives • More than just Kinematics Sensing • Internet-based Data Exchange • Computer-Based User Interface • Proprietary PT Software (MATLAB)
