Resumo
The development of interactive and accessible computational technologies
for treating patients, elderly individuals, and people
with disabilities includes the stimulation of manual movements,
especially when related to routine activities and the maintenance
of autonomy. Equipment that algebraically quantifies and provides
precise data on human body kinematics, including hand movements,
enables the reconstruction of biomechanical movement and allows
interaction with virtual environments, made possible through computer
vision techniques. In this context, a study and application
of mathematical vector manipulation calculations are proposed
to quantify hand movements and highlight their applications in
healthcare.
