Research Projects
Human-Like Coaching for Home PT Exercises
Principal Investigator(s): Galina Madjaroff Reitz
Funder: Maryland Industrial Partnerships UMD Funded
Research Areas: Health Informatics > Human-Computer Interaction > Machine Learning, AI, Computational Linguistics, and Information Retrieval
Researchers are developing an AI-powered physical therapy coach that uses real-time motion tracking and personalized feedback to improve exercise adherence and outcomes. By simulating human-like interaction and emotional engagement, the project aims to make home-based rehabilitation more effective and accessible.
