BackgroundSignificanceProject OverviewAssumptionsObjectiveProblems Faced

BackgroundBackgroundParkinson Disease Motor system disorder in the brain. Results from the loss of Dopamine. First described by James Parkinson in 1817.Symptoms (Primary) Tremor of one or more than one limb. Rigidity . Bradykinesia. Postural instability.

Background (Contd.)Background (Contd.)

Type of Tremor Resting Tremor Postural Tremor Precision Tremor

Typical tremor found in Parkinson’s disease Person is 3.71 to 4.34 Hz

Background (Contd.)Background (Contd.)

Treatment Drugs: Levodopa, Carbidopa (converts into

dopemine). Drugs: Bromocryptine, Pramipexole (mimic the

role of dopamine). Therapy: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS).Problems After a certain time period it comes back.

SignificanceSignificance

Our system is the combination of medical robotics (robotic arm) and signal processing (tremor cancellation) in rehabilitation of the parkinsonian.
