International Collaboration Project Phase II
Final Presentation

• Sponsored by TNUA and Ministry of Economic Affairs

TNUA-UCCS-Denver Children Hospital Human Motion
Tracking for Rehab Project

• Goal improve rehab patient care by applying
  Labanotation, computer modeling/animation
  techniques, and wireless sensor tracking systems
  for specifying and recording rehab exercises.

Task 1. Identify and Record key Rehab Exercises

• Mini-squats
• Standing posterior pelvic tilt
• Shoulder elevation with rotation
• Standing hip abduction

8
Identify Safe Zone limiting exercise excursion

• For Shoulder elevation with rotation exercise
• Step Slowly, begin to elevate the right upper
  extremity to shoulder height at the side of the
  body.
• Safe Zone Limit The arm should end as close to
  parallel to the ground as possible, creating a
  90 ( 5 shoulder abduction angle. Also, the arm
  should end in the frontal plane of the body,
  within 0 ( 5 front to back.
• Safe zone guides exercises and alert patients

Task 2. Specify Exercises in Laban ?????

• Provided Laban Clinic Session for UCCS Team
• Identified the key rehab exercises with TCH Team
• Advised UCCS Team on enhancing Laban for rehab
  exercises.

11
?????

• Lead a UCCS group to explore the use of wireless
  sensor network (WSN) based tracking system for
  recording the rehab exercises and to examine the
  LabanDancer software for rehab
• Mr. Francisco Torres examined LabanDancer,
  proposed new human motion specification/editing
  tool for rehab exercises.
• Mr. Michael Baswell developed a WSN based
  tracking prototype

12
Laban Concise but Need Extension for Rehab

• Start standing with equal weight distributed
  between right and left legs.
• Place feet shoulder width apart.
• Keep torso upright, avoid bending at the waist.
• Slowly lower yourself by bending the ankles,
  knees, and hips.
• Return to standing.

Reused notation?
13
Exercise d. Standing hip ABD (abduction)

• Start standing with equal weight distributed
  between the right and left legs
• Slowly, shift your weight to the left side
• Raise the right leg out to the side 12
• Keep the right foot facing forward
• Keep the torso upright and avoid leaning to the
  side
• .

Task 4. Design rehab exercise specification/animat
ion tool
15
Dr. Semwal Sudhanshu

• Dr. Jonathan Kip Knight developed a program that
  given a few C3D data provide in real-time an
  estimate of the joint location. Currently being
  ported to Windows by Francisco Torres
• Dr. Semwal performed research on Emotion
  communication/Motion Quality Modeling using
  Earth, Fire, Water, Wind (EFW2) or similar
  concepts.

16
Salsa Dance

• Joints data generated by Kip Knights software
• This program can be used to quickly calibrate the
  size of the rehab patient given a few sensor data

17
Task 5 Wireless Sensor Network for Recording
Rehab Exercises

• Michael Baswell uses MIT Ultrasound Cricket
  Sensors for human motion tracking prototype.

18
Conclusion

• We have generated English description, video (3
  angles), C3D, Labanotation for 4 key rehab
  exercise and their safe zone for future
  research.
• Proposed a software architecture for rehab
  specification/tracking system.
• Implemented a program for fast calculation of
  joints given a few time-3D data.
• Preliminary analysis of Earth, Fire, Water, Wind
  concept for Emotion communication/Motion Quality
  Modeling
• Developed a Cricket WSN based human motion
  tracking prototype.
