Grip Force Paradigm
Work in Progress
Introduction
- Overview of the paradigm
Grip Force paradigm is the measurement of the pressure applied on a small sensor held in hands in Newton. In this paradigm, we are looking for the unconscious micro variations of this force which is in millinewton. The sensor evaluates grip force through electrical measurements.
- Purpose of wiki
Exchange about the grip force paradigm method to develop the technique and his standardisation.
Propose guidelines and tips to use the grip force paradigm and develop the technique in various fields
- Audience ?
Every research team which is interested in this new method can use this wiki to follow the standards of the community.
Methodology
Experimental setup
Procedure
Technical considerations
Sensor calibration
Electrical Noise
Since we are looking for micro-variations and the sensor measure force through electrical signal, the electrical noise of the experimental setup needs to be evaluated.
Data logging and Sampling rates
Methodological Aspects
Micro-variations detection
Error and Sensitvity Analysis
Statistical Analysis Methods
Comparisons and Benchmarks Across Teams
Team-specific Modifications
There is multiple sensor models possible to record grip force and the sensor can also be customised by research teams like with aluminium plates, or plastic or metal ones. Therefore, it is important to report the characteristics of the sensors used in studies for experimental setup's documentation and ensure replicability.
