3-D automultiscopic displays in the treatment of motor functions and balance (Collaboration: L. Oddsson, Neuromuscular Research Center at Boston University)
 

This is a joint effort between the Neuromuscular Research Center, Boston University Medical Center and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering to develop new tools to study the development, structure and function of the human brain. One particular area of interest here is the treatment of motor functions and balance such as during rehabilitation after stroke, spinal cord injury, or cerebral palsy, or during prolonged depravation of gravity such as observed by astronauts in space.

Our role in this project is to develop eyewear-free 3-D visualization system based on lenticular technology (currently Synthagram SG222 and SG202 by Stereographics Corp. are being used) and off-the-shelf digital point-and-shoot cameras. The idea is to capture 2-3 views of a scene of interest to the patient (his/her own house, garden etc,) and then reconstruct additional 6-7 views digitally on a computer for the total of 9 views that can be comfortably viewed on the 3-D screen and help regain balance control.
