Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

In clinical practice, postural stability is commonly evaluated by scored balance performance of body sway on a platform. In this work, a platform with reaction force measurement is realized for postural balance analysis. A Microsystems based on microcontroller was built in order to drive the instrumentation and a graphical user interface has also realized. After calibration, experimentation test of postural balance conducted by subject has been carried.
