Many individuals after stroke exhibit upper extremity (UE) motor impairments. Manual interactions with objects are ubiquitous in everyday life and impaired interactive abilities result in loss of independence. Hence, understanding how deficits of UE manifest in functional interactions with objects is important for neurorehabilitation. However, detailed quantitative measurements of such intricate skills have been elusive so that current quantification of motor impairment has focused on impairment.
