| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We were able to develop a gyro-sensor system that can measure motion relative to a reference point by simply placing a small sensor on a finger or any body part. It consists of a small wireless sensor and PC software. Multiple sensors can be connected simultaneously to record relative angular changes. This allows the movement of an adult finger to be recorded as data over time. As an example of the use of this system, we reported that by placing a sensor at the distal end of the index finger and a reference sensor on the dorsum of the hand, changes in the flexion and extension angles of the index finger could be recorded.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
インターネットに接続された携帯電話を始めとする様々なデバイスの影響で、我々を取り巻く社会環境は急速に変化している。その中でも依然、手の重要性は変わっていない。手は脳に直結しているインターフェイスでもあるため、その動きから得られる情報は非常に意義がある。本研究で開発された、安価にかつ無線で指の運動を計測するシステムは、手の動きから客観的かつ経時的データを取り出すことができ、医学に留まらない広い応用範囲がある。
