Enhanced system and method for assessment of disequilibrium, balance and motion disorders
A system and method for providing therapy and assessment utilizing vibrotactile feedback is disclosed. Such treatment is useful for the assessment and treatment of disequilibrium, movement and balance disorders. The system and method measures a subject's performance of predetermined tasks with respect to expected parameters using sensors such as force plates, inertial sensors, and three dimensional cameras. Predetermined motions are motions such as stand, sit-to-stand, reach, bend, functional gait, functional gait plus headshake, and other functional tasks. Vibrotactile stimulation may be applied during the subject's performance as disruptive input. Variance and rate of change of variance between measured and expected parameters is used as a tool for assessment of said subject, and is also used for providing real-time vibrotactile training to said subject. The invention is useful in the treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), neurologic disorders causing disequilibrium and balance disorders, and the like.

A system and method for providing therapy and assessment utilizing vibrotactile feedback is disclosed and claimed. Such treatment is useful for the treatment of disequilibrium and balance disorders. The system and method uses sensors such as force plates, inertial sensors, and three dimensional cameras to provide a subject with vibrotactile feedback in response to an attempt by the subject to perform predetermined motions. Predetermined motions are motions such as stand, sit-to-stand, reach, bend, functional gait, functional gait plus headshake, and other functional tasks. Vibrotactile stimulation may be applied during the subject's performance of a functional gait task as a disruptive input. Variance and rate of change of variance between measured and expected parameters are determined and used as a tool for assessment, and may also be used for providing real-time vibrotactile training. Such assessment and therapy is useful in the treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).

Index deriving device, wearable device, and mobile device
A subject performs a sit-to-stand operation while wearing a device (SU) that contains an acceleration sensor (11) on the front of the chest. The present invention derives a muscular strength index representing the muscular strength of a human body by obtaining maximum acceleration value data from a signal expressing the size of an acceleration vector comprising a tri-axial component in detected acceleration, and using the maximum acceleration value data and the muscle mass or body fat mass of the subject. The present invention has the ability to derive a physical activity amount from the acceleration detection results, and on the basis of the activity amount (ACT) during a prescribed activity target period and the muscular strength index at the start and end times of the activity target period, obtains an activity efficiency index that corresponds to changes in the muscular strength index in response to the amount of activity.
