Brief description One in six people have a stroke at some time in their life. Half the people with upper limb problems after stroke do not recover useful function. New technologies are needed to improve outcomes. This project develops the portable Arm Movement Measurement device, which measures motor control of the arm and hand for clinicians and patients, to improve rehabilitation outcomes, and for researchers to use to measure motor control in clinical studies.
