dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this thesis is to provide a rehabilitation aid system for children with developmental disorders. Such symptoms can be improved through rehabilitation, slowing down the rate of deterioration dyskinesia conditions and raising up the development of their limb coordination. The goal of this paper is to assist children with developmental disorders in utilizing this set of systems at home for self-rehabilitation which will not only ease the inconvenience of commuting clinics, but also achieve the purpose of controlling the disease.
The children with developmental disorders means that they have a slow rate of development or unusual growth order phenomenon; the symptom will influence cognitivity, motion, language communication, psycho-social and self-care of the children. This article is aimed toward rehabilitation of motion. Motion development delay will seriously affect the operational capacity of children, thereby affecting their physical and mental development. It requires to take various rehabilitation-necessary actions to effectively reduce the extent of a patient′s movement disorders.
The rehabilitation system uses virtual reality mechanics, with a simple somatosensory game, children can complete a full course of rehabilitation. The system uses Kinect to capture human skeleton information out of its limbs, joint angle vector, using dynamic time warping algorithm to train the data and furthermore to be able to differentiate and correct the actions. Once the motion error was detected, the system will send out illustration to remind children, with the playback mechanism, the patient will have a clear understanding of the wrong action. By using visual and auditory cues in the game for rehabilitation, we hope the system can effectively promote the development of the action planning and eliminate ability difference between children with developmental disorders and other children in the same age.
