Development and creation of software‑hardware systems for fine motor skill training

About the project. More than 30% of the potential in the sensorimotor sphere of the human brain is spent on fine motor control — the operation of the fingers and palms. This confirms the role of fine motor skills in human evolution. On the one hand, many diseases and brain injuries lead to and manifest as fine motor impairments, and on the other hand, properly organized and regular fine motor training enhances the effectiveness of rehabilitation and prevention. The proposed fine motor trainer and its method of use differ from most similar devices by providing an objective, i.e., numerical assessment of important physiological parameters — reaction speed and force generated by each finger during exercises of varying difficulty — and by archiving these results in personal databases on medical institutions’ servers or in cloud storage. It is crucial that this enables monitoring changes in fine motor assessments over time. The trainer will be used by many patients discharged from medical facilities at home, with real‑time transmission of all training results via the Internet. Analyzing these results is well within the capabilities of AI. The trainer will be especially useful for: - children with developmental delays and autism spectrum disorders; - stroke survivors; - individuals who have suffered traumatic brain injuries, including wounds sustained in the Special Military Operation; - all elderly individuals for the prevention of age‑related dementia and at the onset of its symptoms.
