Our Partner: The St. Vincent Pediatric Rehabilitation Center
Located in Indianapolis Services Provided (Outpatient):
Occupational Therapy Physical Therapy Speech-Language Pathology
Audiology Each of our project teams work with an individual
therapist to create designs that will aid them and also their
patients

Our Partner: The St. Vincent Pediatric Rehabilitation Center
Difficulties they are facing: Budget cuts and lack of funding Much
of what they already have was provided through grants Cannot
purchase new equipment on their own or even fix things that are
broken In the winter, the children need to have coats on because
heating the entire building is too expensive The therapists need
new tools to help them provide quality care for their patients This
is where we come in

The Projects 1. Augmented Assisted Communication (AAC) A
website that aids patients with special communication needs 2.
Hand-Eye Coordination (HEC) Measuring how fast a patient can react
and how accurate their reactions are 3. Bike A device that is
attached to an exercise machine that will monitor its speed and
turn off a TV if the patients RPM drops below a threshold set by
the therapist

Partner Need Quantitative measurement when using exercise
devices Indicate progress for insurance and doctors Need duration
of therapy, and total repetitions/revolutions Motivation for the
therapy patient
Slide 31
Partner Need Issues with measuring quantitatively: The exercise
equipment they have are hand-me- downs Cant afford to buy new
equipment Some of their exercise equipment does not have electronic
functionality Others do, but are broken Cant afford to fix the
broken electronics Currently, Suba has to count revolutions in her
head and use a stopwatch
Slide 32
Project Overview A device attachable to exercise equipment
Quantitative Measurements: Times the duration of exercise Detects
and counts revolutions Motivates the patient: Therapist sets a
threshold value for the patients speed User Feedback System
indicates the patients speed relative to the threshold If threshold
maintained, TV stays on If not, TV turns off
Slide 33
Brief History Project began in Spring 2008 A functional
prototype was delivered in Spring 2009 Proof-of-concept Feedback

For the Future Mass production of final product Unit Cost (from
Bill of Materials): $xxx Cost does not use bulk purchase rates
Complete universal remote interface Mostly done Non-essential for
Subas application But useful for other applications Potential minor

Project Scope Deliver to St. Vincent's Hospital Our project is
aimed towards: Young children in need of rehabilitation Mentally
challenged children Ages 4-10 Mental capacity of ages 4-6 SVAT

data that measures hand-eye coordination
Slide 62
Current Goals Deliver a working prototype Thursday Have
documentation for next semester
Slide 63
Success Criteria We define success as: Having one completed
game with working user input Have it provide quantitative data the
therapist can use We will deliver a flash game and user-input
system to St.Vincents. We will be successful if: Therapist rank
game above 60% SVAT HEC
