PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION AND STRUCTURE OF THE SYSTEM
The general idea of BIOFEEDBACK system is based on reading the parameters, processing the signal, creating
the graphic representation and passing the information back.
BIOFEEDBACK’s aim is to help in achieving better therapeutic effects during the rehabilitation process and to
increase motivation of the patient in performed exercises.
BIOFEEDBACK system includes:
-
the sensor with the cover,
-
a stand,
-
a tablet.
The sensor is equipped with the battery.
SENSOR
Accelerometer collects the data of the movements performed by a patient. The sensor connects wireless with the
application which uses the received data and the parameters set by a therapist to motivate the patient and to lead
him/her through the complete rehabilitation session.
The sensor is located under the foot of the device – here presented with DRACO Ankle
rehabilitation device. During the calibration and performed exercises it collects the
feedback about limb displacement according to the chosen exercise.
