Game features of cognitive training (2016)
Conference Proceeding

Cognitive training aimed at older adults is introduced and the issues of engagement and adhesion are discussed. Two examples of ‘brain training’ games are analysed, one with a health (non-leisure) focus that is currently being deployed in a clinical... Read More about Game features of cognitive training.

Computer games for user engagement in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) monitoring and therapy (2015)
Conference Proceeding

State-of-the-art computer games and psychological tests for symptom monitoring and therapy in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are explored and reviewed. Three foci for research studies are identified: task (human performance) focus; e...

Self management of type II diabetes: The role of blood glucose monitoring (2011)
Conference Proceeding

Cricket batting technique analyser/trainer using fuzzy logic (2009)
Conference Proceeding

Within this paper a system is proposed to capture the motion of a cricket batter whilst playing a stroke. The system is based on the classification of cricket batting strokes using fuzzy logic. The system was then used to analyze the motion of novice... Read More about Cricket batting technique analyser/trainer using fuzzy logic.

Cardiac training simulator using pump with electronic pressure sensor to trigger ventricular fibrillation (2003)
Conference Proceeding

Cardiac surgery training in a realistic surgical environment is assisted by a simulator based on an electromechanical pneumatic pump with associated control and display software. In this paper we describe a feedback mechanism for controlling the beat... Read More about Cardiac training simulator using pump with electronic pressure sensor to trigger ventricular fibrillation.

Fuzzy Recognition of Cricket Batting Strokes Based on Sequences of Body and Bat Postures (2003)
Conference Proceeding

A mathematical classification of two cricket batting strokes, using fuzzy set theory, is presented. A system is proposed within this paper, to capture the motion of a batsman/batswoman whilst playing a stroke. This is then compared to known strokes,...
