ASSISTANCE DEVICE INTENDED FOR A PERSON SUFFERING MOTOR DISORDERS OF NEUROLOGICAL ORIGIN

摘要

The invention concerns an assistance device intended for a person (1) suffering motor disorders of neurological origin, comprising: an accelerometer suitable for being worn by the person for measuring accelerations; and storage means storing a plurality of previously defined alert acceleration threshold values; and means (5) for transmitting an auditory stimulation perceptible to the person wearing the accelerometer; and calculation means configured to carry out the following steps: a) determining a posture of the person from the measured accelerations, b) comparing the accelerations measured by said accelerometer in the first direction relative to at least one anticipatory acceleration threshold value associated with said posture; c) controlling the transmission of an auditory stimulation depending on the crossing of said anticipatory acceleration threshold value associated with said posture during a predefined period associated with said anticipatory acceleration threshold value.
