Topic: Tremor (software)


In the News (Sat 26 Dec 09)

  
  Software
Software designers are very careful to ensure that only the most important functions take up valuable space on these bars because they are critical for ease of use for most users.
On the other hand, if the component were to purchase and use accessible software, then the employee with a disability could independently access the database of shared files and would have the opportunity to perform on a level playing field with his or her peers.
A "screen reader" is a software application that makes text available to people who are blind, who have low vision, or who have cognitive impairments or learning disabilities that affect their ability to read.

  Essential tremor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tremor intensity can worsen in response to fatigue, strong emotions, hunger, cold, or other factors and can be reduced with alcohol in approximately 50 percent of patients.
Essential tremor is often found in more than one member of a family (familial tremor), in which case it is usually dominant in inheritance, or it may occur with no family history.
ET is usually painless, although in some cases tremor of the head or neck causes pain, and writing can become painful quickly for a person with hand tremors who grips a pen tightly in a struggle to maintain control over penmanship.

 Muscle Tremors -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Tremor is the rhythmic, oscillating shaking movement of the whole body or just a certain part of it, caused by problems of the neurons responsible from muscle action.
Tremor may occur as an isolated symptom and usually of idiopathic (unknown) cause (essential tremor) or a part of the symptom constellation of another disorder (e.g.
Harmonic tremor is a continuous release of seismic energy typically associated with the underground movement of magma.

Tremor may occur as an isolated symptom and usually of unknown cause (essential tremor) or a part of the symptom constellation of another disorder (Parkinson's Disease).
Tremors may occur at rest (Parkinson's disease), during voluntary movements (cerebellar lesions) or during excessive activity of muscles (essential tremor, hyperthyroidism).
Tremor uses fixed-point numeric representations in its implementation so that it can be used by small embedded devices (which typically do not have floating-point processors).

Intention tremor in the upper limb is encountered in approximately one-third of the MS population (2-4).
The term cerebellar tremor is often used synonymously with intention tremor and is commonly associated with disruptions of the cerebellum or its afferent or efferent pathways (3,5,11).
Intention tremor is a largely underestimated cause of disability, probably because it is usually part of a wider clinical picture where strength often is preserved but movement control is affected (12).

 IBM SJ 44-3 | A mouse adapter for people with hand tremor
Tremor can be caused by an injury, by an illness such as Parkinson's disease, by hereditary factors, and by aging.
When tremor is associated with an illness or injury, it is often more severe than ET and may be accompanied by a loss of overall control of the hand.
If the level of hand tremor is moderate, which is the case for at least a subset of people with illness-related hand tremor, the problem can be alleviated by applying a suitable digital filter to the data stream from a standard mouse.

 Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tremor and Toast are software libraries that decode the Ogg Vorbis and GSM Full Rate audio formats respectively.
These codecs use fixed-point arithmetic because many audio decoding hardware devices do not have an FPU (to save money) and audio decoding requires enough performance that a software implementation of floating-point on low-speed devices would not produce output in real time.
All 3D graphics engines on Sony's original PlayStation and Nintendo's Game Boy Advance (only 2D) and Nintendo DS (2D and 3D) video game systems use fixed-point arithmetic for the same reason as Tremor and Toast: to gain throughput on an architecture without an FPU.

Parkinson's is perhaps the disease most commonly associated with tremors, but there are other conditions such as Essential Tremor (ET) which is less well known but actually more common.
Despite tremor conditions often being worse in the elderly, they can occur in people of all ages - Essential Tremor, for example, is a condition inherited genetically at birth and can affect people throughout their lives.

Writing tremor is a symptom exhibiting bursts of involuntary muscular motion during the act of writing or drawing [2].
Tablets have been used for the quantification of tremor in previous physiological studies [3], which suggests in turn that patients with writing tremor may encounter the same difficulty during the utilization of tablet-based input devices, just as they experience in everyday writing and drawing with conventional materials.
The immediate outcomes from the study are the development of a corrective strategy for writing tremor and its software implementation for a tablet-based input device, which are beneficial on their own sakes.
