Hey everyone,

My name is Laurissa and I'm a Biomedical Engineering student at Georgia Tech. I am currently part of a team working on the design of a device to aide in the successful execution of physical therapy exercises.

We are capable of measuring the angles of joints/body position with a system of sensors, and the current plan is to incorporate these into clothing that can be worn by the patient. There are a few questions we need help answering, and we would really appreciate insight!

-How often do you do exercises at home?
-Would you be willing to wear something to track how accurately you are completing your exercises?
-Are there any exercises you have particular trouble with?
-Are there any exercises that involve you positioning your body precisely (angle between limbs, joint)?
-What exercises do you do the most? Would you prefer something for the lower body or upper body?

Please feel free to respond with ANYTHING you would like to see in a device.

Thank you very much!]]> Fri, 18 Jan 2013 09:47:52 +0000 http://www.cyberpt.com/ptforum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1127&PID=1588&title=senior-design-please-help#1588
