Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study proposed an evaluation system for ocular motor function. The proposed system can display various target objects in various locations and move at various speeds. The proposed system allows users to understand their weaknesses in the task. To evaluate both ocular and limb motor functions, the system capable of evaluation both ocular and limb was developed. This study proposed a system that combines sensory stimulus presentation and motion capture. The proposed system can evaluate reaction time to sensory stimuli by presenting tactile (vibration), auditory, and visual stimuli at random times during walking (stepping task). It was confirmed that the system's potential for assessing subject reaction time to different sensory stimuli and quantitatively.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

人は,視覚,聴覚,嗅覚などの様々な感覚情報を用いて行動(運動)し,日常生活動作を行っている.そのため,リハビリ訓練によって,社会復帰するためには,単に腕や脚の筋力を向上させるだけではなく,様々な感覚を統合する能力や協調動作を習得していくことが求められ,患者の身体能力の評価が必要不可欠である.そのため,眼球運動,四肢運動,感覚情報(視覚,聴覚,触覚など)を容易に評価できる新たな評価システムが期待されている.本研究成果の評価システムによって,患者の身体状態をより詳細に把握することができるようになり,より効率的なリハビリ訓練に繋げられると考えられる.
