Drug Induced Parkinsonism (DIP) is the most common, debilitating movement disorder induced by antipsychotics. There is no tool available in clinical practice to effectively diagnose the symptoms at the onset of the disease. In this study, the variati...
BACKGROUND: Technology-based objective measures (TOMs) recently gained relevance to support clinicians in the assessment of motor function in Parkinson's disease (PD), although limited data are available in the early phases.

BACKGROUND: It is very important for robotically assisted minimally invasive surgery to achieve a high-precision and smooth motion control. However, the surgical instrument tip will exhibit vibration caused by nonlinear friction and unmodeled dynamic...
For effective tremor compensation in robotics assisted hand-held device, accurate filtering of tremulous motion is necessary. The time-varying unknown phase delay that arises due to both software (filtering) and hardware (sensors) in these robotics i...
