项目摘要
Project Summary/Abstract
New incidence of spinal cord injuries ranges from 250k to 500k globally each year, with up to 7 million people
impacted worldwide. Currently almost 300k individuals are living in the United States with SCI and approximately
60% of those are considered quadriplegic. Spinal cord injury results in life-altering consequences in terms of
morbidity, mortality, functional status, employment and quality of life. Beyond physical and mental impact on the
individual, the economic and social impacts are extreme with average lifetime cost of care for a young adult at
age 25 with high quadriplegia estimated to be $4.6 million. The range of functional impact most often depends
on the level of injury and completeness. Higher level, more complete injuries cause more widespread weakness
and paralysis. For quadriplegics with injuries at the cervical level, their ability to complete even the most basic
ADLs are severely compromised, as they may only retain head control as well as some slight shoulder control,
elbow flexion, and tenodesis grasp of objects. One of the most basic human needs is accessibility to water for
wide ranging ADLs such as drinking, grooming, or face washing. However, control and delivery form factor of
the water (On/Off, temperature, force & angle, and stream/spray type) have different requirements for unique
ADLs. Traditional faucets can be very challenging, if not impossible, for an individual with high level SCI and
limited control degrees of freedom to adjust and control for a given task requiring water.
The Access-H20 smart faucet being developed by Nasoni, LLC will solve these market challenges by smart
sensor integration, automated flow adjustment, & intuitive control algorithms to improve water accessibility for
targeted ADLs in SCI. The smart faucet design delivers water through either a traditional downward spout or
upward fountain delivery, allowing a single faucet to be used by all in a household. System design will integrate
a sensor network (proximity, voice, camera, & eye gaze sensor) which can be calibrated based on remaining
control degrees of freedom of the individual. Intelligent algorithm mapping will allow the user to activate the
faucet for use and adjust it through various flow control features such as on/off, temperature, nozzle (spray or
stream), force, and angle of water flow for a given task. For example, the faucet will automatically adjust to warm,
spray, and higher delivery angle for face washing, as opposed to cold, stream, & lower delivery angle for drinking.
While the fully commercialized Access-H2O will include all features above, this Phase I will demonstrate core
feasibility of more independent drinking and grooming in SCI. Phase I will first focus on upgrading the existing
static fountain design with a sensor and machine vision network, as well as novel electromechanical flow controls
to automatically adjust water delivery. Next, smart algorithms will be designed to map individual user control
inputs to targeted water delivery for drinking and face washing. Once the enhanced faucet and algorithms have
been integrated and technical verified through bench testing, the prototype will be deployed in a pilot usability
study with spinal cord injury subjects.
项目摘要/摘要
全球每年脊髓损伤的新发病率从25万到50万不等,高达700万人。
在全球范围内受到影响。目前,近30万人生活在美国,患有脊髓损伤,大约
其中60%被认为是四肢瘫痪。脊髓损伤会在以下方面导致改变生活的后果
发病率、死亡率、功能状态、就业和生活质量。超越了对身体和精神的影响
就个人而言,这对经济和社会的影响是极端的,年轻人一生的平均护理成本为
25岁的高位四肢瘫痪患者估计价值460万美元。功能影响的范围最常取决于
关于受伤程度和完好性。更高级别、更完全的损伤会导致更广泛的虚弱
和瘫痪。对于颈部有损伤的四肢瘫痪患者,他们甚至可以完成最基本的
ADL严重受损,因为它们可能只保留头部控制以及一些轻微的肩部控制,
肘部屈曲,伸缩握持物体。人类最基本的需求之一是
广泛的ADL,如饮酒、美容或洗脸。然而,控制和交付形式因素
水(开/关、温度、力与角度、流/喷)对独特性有不同的要求
ADLS。对于患有高水平SCI和
对需要水的特定任务进行调节和控制的有限控制自由度。
Nasoni,LLC正在开发的Access-H20智能水龙头将通过Smart解决这些市场挑战
传感器集成、自动流量调节和直观的控制算法,可提高
脊髓损伤中的靶向ADL。智能水龙头设计通过传统的向下喷嘴或
向上喷泉,允许一个水龙头供一个家庭所有人使用。系统设计将整合
传感器网络(接近、语音、摄像头和眼睛凝视传感器),可根据剩余时间进行校准
控制个人的自由度。智能算法映射将允许用户激活
使用水龙头,并通过各种流量控制功能,如开/关、温度、喷嘴(喷雾或
水流)、水流的力和水流角度。例如,水龙头会自动调节到温水,
喷雾和更高的洗脸角度,而不是冷水、流水和更低的饮用角度。
虽然完全商业化的Access-H2O将包括上述所有功能,但此阶段I将演示核心
在SCI中更多地独立饮酒和美容的可行性。第一阶段将首先集中提升现有的
带有传感器和机器视觉网络的静态喷泉设计,以及新型机电流量控制
自动调节输水量。接下来,将设计智能算法来映射个人用户控制
用于饮用水和洗脸的有针对性的供水投入。一旦增强的水龙头和算法
通过台架测试进行了集成和技术验证,样机将部署在试验性可用性中
与脊髓损伤受试者进行研究。
