Document Summary
Can be used for improvement in movement / movement description (learning tool: displacement, distance, accurate (can get up to mm in accuracy- depending on tool) 3 parameters can evaluate efficiency/ effectiveness of movement (fluid movment) As the target is further away displacement increases. Bell shaped profile = indicative of fluid movement. Peak acceleration + deceleration scale with peak velocity / target amplitude. Bell shape = fluid / effective movement. Real time data about the movements with the skill. Can be used to look at different disease. Ideomotor apraxia inability to translate the appropriate innovatory patterns into action. Legion in left parietal lobe (sensory motor interface) , ideomotor apraxia. Forward + backward motion with a quick reversal in direction (for each) Fluid motion in all panels (bell shaped) = fluid / efficient movement. Not being very effective at cutting bread (because of lack of fluid motion) Results: individuals with ideomotor apraxia have spatial deficits, temporal defecits + spatiotemporal defecits.
