A device and method for assisting upper limb rehabilitation based on real sensing technology

Abstract

The invention relates to a device and a method for assisting upper limb rehabilitation based on a true feeling technology. A computer or a processor system with a display is connected with a traction support, and upper limbs of convalescent patients are placed on the traction support; the computer or the processor system with the display is utilized to control the traction support to move and further to drive the upper limbs of the convalescent patients to move; a 3D true feeling camera is connected with the computer or the processor system with the display, real-time palm tracking and hand gesture recognition are achieved according to upper limb motion data of the convalescent patients acquired by the 3D true feeling camera, and meanwhile the result is fed back to a virtual scene built by the computer or the processor system. According to the device and the method for assisting upper limb rehabilitation based on the true feeling technology, the true feeling technology and a rehabilitation system are combined, the 3D true feeling camera is adopted, and therefore the timeliness and accuracy of palm tracking and hand gesture recognition are improved, and user experience is more smooth; the patients with a certain upper limb motion ability can play by themselves without the traction support so as to increase force of the upper limbs and improve sports coordination.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and method for limb rehabilitation, in particular to a device and method for upper limb rehabilitation, which are used for auxiliary rehabilitation of patients with lack of upper limb motor ability, and belong to the technical field of rehabilitation medicine. Background technique [0002] Rehabilitation medicine is an emerging discipline with great potential, which aims to eliminate human dysfunction. With the serious aging of society, the society's demand for rehabilitation medicine is increasing. [0003] Traditional rehabilitation exercises can only be realized under the guidance of doctors and with the help of family members or nurses throughout the process, which takes a lot of time and energy. However, the existing rehabilitation medical devices on the market are difficult to be recognized and applied by consumers because of their high prices and single blunt rehabilitation methods.

[0003] Traditional rehabilitation exercises can only be realized under the guidance of doctors and with the help of family members or nurses, which takes a lot of time and energy

However, the existing rehabilitation medical devices on the market are difficult to be recognized and applied by consumers because of their high prices and single blunt rehabilitation methods.

For the hospital-style traditional rehabilitation process and the rigid rehabilitation methods of existing rehabilitation equipment, patients often show a lack of patience, confidence and interest, which eventually leads to inefficient rehabilitation and recurrence of illness
