Dr Piotr Slowinski: Movement & Mind: augmented reality and future healthcare

Part of Pint of Science 2021.


Event details

Dr Piotr Slowinski will be giving a talk on 17 May from 8pm entitled Movement & Mind: augmented reality and future healthcare as part of Pint of Science 2021.

Movements made by our bodies are controlled by our minds. Some movements are as simple as moving a finger to scroll through a mobile phone display. Others, like gestures and nods, are essential for dail interactions with other people. Brain disease and mental illness change the way we move. I will explain how augmented reality technology can be used to measure changes in movement, how I use data analysis and maths to find patterns in the recordings of movement, and how such patterns ciould be used to help diagnose brain disease and mental illness.
