Abstract
DIEGO MENDOZA, Jorge et al. Validation coordinating movements in upper limbs for virtual rehabilitation using using slopes. RCIM [online]. 2016, vol.8, n.1, pp. 12-29. ISSN 1684-1859.
The development of this researckneh is based on supporting Motor Rehabilitation treatments using Information Technology for the benefit of patients and specialists in the area. According to an analysis of current technologies for Motor Rehabilitation, we have identified some disadvantages that limit their use in the treatment and therefore patients do not continue or complete their therapies, this study intends to use a tool low cost (Microsoft Kinect sensor) to support the motion capture of the key points of the upper extremities (hands, elbows and shoulders) using a slopes. Also, the tests were conducted with 21 users, the algorithm evaluated some movements, the thresholds used determined the correct exercises.
Keywords : natural user interface; slopes; sensor Kinect.
