Abstract
A system for measuring the position of transponders for testing and training a user to manipulate the position of the transponders while being guided by interactive and sensory feedback through a bidirectional communication link to a processing system for the purpose of functional movement assessment for exercise and physical rehabilitation.
Claims15
A system for tracking position of a user, comprising:
- a first communication device, adapted for being attached to, or held by, the user, comprising:
- a transmitter for transmitting signals;
- a receiver for receiving signals;
- and
- an output device;
- and
- a processing system, remote from the first communication device, for wirelessly receiving the signals transmitted by the transmitter, determining position information for the first communication device and sending data signals to the receiver to provide feedback or control data to the user;
- wherein the first communication device receives and processes the received data signals and generates sensory stimuli for the user, based on the received data signals and delivered through the output device.
5 more elements
An apparatus for use in conjunction with a remote processing system for tracking position of a user, comprising:
- a transmitter for transmitting position information signals to the remote processing system;
- a receiver for receiving feedback or control data signals wirelessly from the remote processing system, the data signals derived from processed signals from the transmitter;
- and
- an output unit for delivering sensory stimuli to the user, based upon the data signals.
