Summary
In the frame of the project it is planned to develop a training device of motional and cognitive functions for children with psychoneurological disorders on the basis of methods of computer stabilography, biofeedback and play biocontrol and to organize their production.
Description
The project includes the development of original mechanic construction of training device, development of assessment methods and restoration of psychoneurological disorders among children at the age of 5-12 years, development of software for the training device. The project presupposes participation of medical workers of the relevant specializations. Period of execution: 2 years.
Technology type
Technical advantages and economic benefits
The use of accelerometers for direct measuring of base surface declination concerning field lines of the gravitational field of the Earth, extended rating of base platform moving in relation to base. Economical benefits – lower cost of the product.
Technology differentiation and uniqueness
Direct measuring of speed-up and deviation of the base platform in relation to the direction of field lines of the gravitational field of the Earth allows increasing accuracy of estimation of equilibrium function and effectiveness of training; extended range of a child’s motion activity ensures a more flexible approach to the process of rehabilitation of children with psychoneurological disorders.
