Title :
Actergy as a reflex performance metric: Integral-kinematics applications
Author :
Janzen, Ryan ; Mann, Steve
Abstract :
Actergy, the time-integral of energy, is employed in a human kinetic sensing system. This paper presents hardware and signal-processing mathematics to measure actergy in a health science, training or gaming environment, as a more detailed metric of performance than reflex time-delay. Fundamental quantities of Integral-Kinematics are compared alongside actergy, with further potential applications in aerospace.
