) USB-6008 DAQ and NI LabView.The tremor motion was simulated using a circuit designed to output 3 differentfrequencies to a vibration motor, resulting in motion in the range of human tremors.This project used two different data analysis methods: Empirical Mode Decomposition(EMD) and Auto-Regressive (AR) process of order p. Preliminary results show that eachof these methods performed in a satisfactory manner. Page 13.1065.6From educational perspective, this project has provided invaluable graduate researchexperience.
