Identifying Functional Hand Use and Hand Roles of Stroke Survivors in Activities of Daily Living Using Egocentric Video

To identify hand use and hand roles of stroke survivors using videos from wearable cameras (egocentric videos). Upper limb (UL) function evaluated in the clinic may not reflect hand use in activities of daily living (ADLs) after stroke. Accelerometers have been applied to capture UL use, but also fail to reveal details of hand function. In response, a system composed of an egocentric camera and computer vision approaches is proposed to detect functional hand use and identify the role of the affected hand (stabilizer or manipulator) after stroke in unconstrained environments.
