Systems and methods for assessing disorders affecting fine motor skills using handwriting recognition

摘要

A detection and tracking method that enables an objective determination of changes in handwriting with the passage of time and progress of medical conditions which affect fine motor skills. Specifically, a detection and tracking method which precisely describes a handwriting sample as a plurality of features which become indicators of a medical disorder affecting fine motor skills. The indicators are obtained and characterized using analytical and statistical techniques resulting in the development of diagnostic tools for detection and management of that disorder.
