| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Involuntary movements, e.g. abnormal muscle tone and tremor, often limit touch operations on tablet computers. Individuals with neurological motor impairments can maximize their functions by keeping the seating with appropriate settings and positioning for touch operations. In this research, we have developed a system to support decision making in the seating process. It records and analyzes involuntary movements at several body sites by using motion sensors and visualizes the results in multiple views.
