Abstract
Disclosed are various examples and embodiments of systems, devices, components and methods configured to estimate the action potential wave propagation in a patient's heart, and subsequently to detect at least one location or type of at least one source of, or rotational phenomenon associated with, at least one cardiac rhythm disorder using intracardiac electrodes and a modified multi-frame Horn-Schunck algorithm to generate a map corresponding to a spatial map, the map being configured to reveal on a monitor or display to a user the at least one location of the at least one source of the at least one cardiac rhythm disorder.
