A Validation Study of Rehabilitation Exercise Monitoring Using Kinect
Abstract
In this article, we present our work on a validation study of using Microsoft Kinect to monitor rehabilitation exercises. Differing from other validation efforts, we focus on a system-level assessment instead of the joint-level comparison with reference motion capture systems. We assess the feasibility of using Kinect by examining the enforceability of a set of correctness rules defined for each exercise, which are invariances of each exercise and hence independent from the coordinate system used. This method is more advantageous in that (1) it does not require coordinate system transformation between those of the reference motion capture system and of the Kinect based system, (2) it does not require an exact match of the Kinect joints and the corresponding external marker placements or derived joint centers often used in reference motion capture systems, and (3) the correctness rules and their mapping for Kinect motion data analysis developed in this study are readily implementable for a real motion monitoring system for physical therapy.
