Parkinson’s disease
tremor bradykinesia rigidity postural instability
Need for quantification
Objectivity Differential diagnosis (PD, ET,
psychogenic..) Tremor progression Treatment follow-up
Why optical measurements?
Precise measurements of tremor parameters
Keeping track of the patients history – video clips, measurements, comments
Excluding subjectivity Objective comparison of recorded
measurements
How we use the system?
Up to 32 different, color-coded markers
Tremor tracking with 1-4 cameras
3D measurements with two cameras
Comprehensive analysis
Friendly user interface
Powerful analysis
Graphs of horizontal and vertical motion
X/Y graph reproducing tremor
Frequency analysis Comparing tremors
on diff. extremities
Future development!
Design of a low-cost system for private use.
Adding more analysis, giving doctors an instrument for tremor research
To enable physicans to use the patient’s measurements for follow-up of tremor
Tremor Tracker
