Objective and automatic classification of Parkinson disease with Leap Motion controller.

Results revealed that the system did not return clinically meaningful data for measuring postural tremor in PwPD. In addition, it showed limited potential to measure the forearm pronation/supination. In contrast, for finger tapping and hand opening/closing, the derived parameters showed statistical and clinical significance. Future studies should continue to validate the LMC as updated versions of the software are developed. The obtained results support the fact that most of the set of selected features contributed significantly to classify the PwPD and healthy subjects.
