In order to quantitatively measure the neuropsychomotor conditions of an individual in order to subsequently detect their health status, it is necessary to obtain a set of parameters such as reaction time, speed, force and tremor. By processing these parameters through the use of fuzzy logic it is possible to monitor the health status of an individual, for example. if he / she is healthy or affected by a particular pathology such as Parkinson's disease, dementia, etc.
The set of parameters obtained is useful not only to diagnose neuro-motor pathologies (for example, Parkinson's disease), but also to evaluate the general daily health or to control sports performance; furthermore, continuous use of the device by an individual for health surveillance purposes not only allows the detection of the onset of a particular pathology but also provides a greater awareness in terms of how lifestyle or certain habits tend to have repercussions in wellness psychophysical health. Since an individual's health status must be continuously monitored, it is essential that he or she be able to handle the examination autonomously without affecting their emotional state: autonomous testing is important, since the individual is likely to be more relaxed avoiding emotional problems. The new system has been designed with reference to the biomechanical characteristics of the human finger.
