Design and Construction of a Computerized Based System for Reaction Time Test and Anticipation Skill Estimation

Azadeh Shadmehr and Shervin Amiri

Abstract—Measurement of reaction time and anticipation skill estimation are used widely in therapeutic exercises or sport programs. There is a need for an easy-to-use system that can run reaction time tasks and anticipation skills with no special experiments in rehabilitation clinics. For responses to these needs we designed and constructed a simple, portable and inexpensive system based on software engineering methods. The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the feasibility of using this custom design computer based system for reaction time test and anticipation skill estimation.

Index Terms—Rehabilitation engineering, physical therapy, reaction time test, speed anticipation.
