Abstract
In one example, a system for measuring body movement in a movement disorder disease is provided. The system may comprise at least one processor and a memory storing processor executable codes, which, when implemented by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform operations comprising, at least receiving a video including a sequence of images and detecting at least one object of interest in one or more of the images. Feature reference points of the at least one object of interest are located, and a virtual movement-detection framework is generated in one or more of the images. The operations may include detecting, over the sequence of images, at least one singular or reciprocating movement of the feature reference point relative to the virtual movement-detection framework and generating a virtual path tracking a path of the at least one detected singular or reciprocating movement of the feature reference point.
