Simultaneous Quantification of Personalized Balance, Motion Class and Quality for Whole-body Exercise through Synergy...

Recently, emerging technologies are being used to solve state of the art problems in rehabilitation and physiotherapy. The increasing power of portable sensors is making a great choice for analysis of movements during daily activities. We previously developed a method to personalize the measure of balance only using kinematic data from Kinect. This paper presents the results of simultaneous quantification for the postural balance, motion classification and its quality with Synergy Probe. Previously, it was not possible to verify what happens when the motion balance is unstable. With motion quality index along with the stability, we can quantitatively evaluate the balance stability considering the motion class and its intensity during whole-body exercise.
