Abstract
It is essential to assess functional arm use or goal-directed movement of the upper limb in neurorehabilitation. Wearable sensors help in the continuous, uninterrupted, and objective measurement of arm movements in natural settings. This dataset contains wearable inertial measurement unit data from 15 participants (10 healthy and 5 hemiparetic individuals) while they perform 15 different activities of daily living wearing two wrist bands. Tasks included fine finger manipulation tasks like writing, using a mobile phone’s touchscreen, walking for patients in wheelchairs, etc. Video recordings were used to annotate the functional/non-functional use of upper limb using the the Functional Arm Activity Behavioural Observation System (FAABOS).
Instructions:
There are four data files in this dataset:
right.csv: Contains data from the right arm of the control subjects.
left.csv: Contains data from the left arm of the control subjects.
unaffected.csv: Contains data from the unaffected arm of the patients.
affected.csv: Contains data from the affected arm of the patients.
The columns in each of the four files are, time, ax, ay, az, gx, gy, gz, pitch, yaw, mx, my, mz, subject, old_time, r1, r2, g1, g2, task, use_type, gnd
