Asante and Hawe publish in Smart Health

Desmond Asante, doctoral student, and Rachel Hawe, PhD, assistant professor in the School of Kinesiology and director of the NeuroRehabilitation Across the Lifespan Lab (NeuRAL Lab), along with Department of Computer Science/Engineering collaborators Shelby Ziccardi, doctoral student, and Stephen Guy, PhD, associate professor, published a paper entitled "Comparing Robotic and Computer Vision Assessments of Unilateral and Bilateral Reaching in Healthy Adults" in the journal Smart Health. Robotics and computer vision are two methods of measuring arm movements, with complementary trade-offs. In this paper, the authors directly compared how individuals performed with each method. The authors found moderate correlations but conclude that unilateral and bilateral reaching performance cannot be generalized across assessment techniques.
