Project Outline • Background • Significance • Project Overview • Assumptions • Objective • Problems Faced
Background • Parkinson Disease • Motor system disorder in the brain. • Results from the loss of Dopamine. • First described by James Parkinson in 1817. • Symptoms (Primary) • Tremor of one or more than one limb. • Rigidity . • Bradykinesia. • Postural instability.
Background (Contd.) • Type of Tremor • Resting Tremor • Postural Tremor • Precision Tremor • Typical tremor found in Parkinson’s disease Person is 3.71 to 4.34 Hz
Background (Contd.) • Treatment • Drugs: Levodopa, Carbidopa (converts into dopemine). • Drugs: Bromocryptine, Pramipexole (mimic the role of dopamine). • Therapy: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). • Problems • After a certain time period it comes back.
Significance Parkinson Patient Smoothened Movements Signal Processing Robotics Signal with tremor Signal without tremor Our system is the combination of medical robotics (robotic arm) and signal processing (tremor cancellation) in rehabilitation of the parkinsonian.
