Abstract: A method and system for augmented neurologic rehabilitation (ANR) of a patient is disclosed. The ANR system generates rhythmic auditory stimulus (RAS) and a visual augmented reality (AR) scene that are synchronized according to a common beat tempo and output to the patient during a therapy session. Sensor worn by the patient capture biomechanical data relating to repetitive movements performed by the patient in sync with the AR visual content and RAS. A critical thinking algorithm analyzes the sensor data to determine a spatial and temporal relationship of the patient's movements relative to the visual and audio elements and determine a level of entrainment of the patient and progression toward clinical/therapeutic goals. Additionally, a 3D AR modelling module configures the processor to dynamically adjust the augmented-reality visual and audio content output to the patient based on the determined level of entrainment and whether a training goal has been achieved.

Abstract: A system and method may be used for reference model predictive tracking and rendering. Systems and methods may use computational systems, networking, or display hardware to seamlessly allow users to see their motion in real-time. The systems and methods may provide the brain the extra visual information to help a user converge to highly efficient high-quality technique (e.g., movement control) more rapidly than other processes. An approach to generating accurate models in delayed processing may include treating depth-sensor-derived skeletal inference of body position as statistical data about the underlying motion rather than a representation of that motion itself. In an example, a process for slicing up a time-series of body constructions in a motion model may use a full time series of positions for individual body segments, creating trajectories.
