Novel Use of a Smartphone to Measure Standing Balance
BACKGROUND Balance assessment and training is utilized by clinicians and their patients to measure and improve balance. There is, however, little consistency in terms of how clinicians, researchers, and patients measure standing balance. Utilizing the inherent sensors in every smartphone, a mobile application was developed to provide a method of objectively measuring standing balance. OBJECTI...
متن کاملTrunk accelerometry as a measure of balance control during quiet standing.
The goal was to investigate whether body sway measured by trunk accelerometry during quiet standing could differentiate between young and elderly healthy subjects, and between conditions with eyes open and closed on firm and compliant surfaces. Raw data demonstrated poor discrimination, but horizontal transformation to eliminate a constant gravity component disclosed consistent mean differences...
متن کاملwuthering heights and the concept of marality/a sociological study of the novel
to discuss my point, i have collected quite a number of articles, anthologies, and books about "wuthering heights" applying various ideas and theories to this fantastic story. hence, i have come to believe that gadamer and jauss are rightful when they claim that "the individaul human mind is the center and origin of all meaning," 3 that reading literature is a reader-oriented activity, that it ...
15 صفحه اولThe dynamics of standing balance.
The control of standing is a complicated task that involves the action of muscles distributed over the whole body. Forces arising from gravity, external events or our own actions all tend to disturb the unstable equilibrium that preserves posture. For the central nervous system the problem of standing can be cast in terms of finding appropriate relations among body segments to maintain the desi...
متن کاملControl Using A Trajectory Library: An Application to Standing Balance
This paper presents a nonlinear controller based on a trajectory library. To generate the library, we combine two trajectory optimization methods: a parametric trajectory optimization method that finds coarse initial trajectories and Differential Dynamic Programming (DDP) that further refines these trajectories and generates linear local models of the optimal control laws. To construct a contro...
