A microprocessor controlled system for evaluating treatments for disabilities affecting the lower limbs

A system, now fully operational, for measuring and recording the temporal/distance factors of normal and pathological human gait has been described. The advantages of the system include the following: 1. it is easy to operate. 2. the results are presented in a clinically digestible form. 3. no constraints are placed on the patient. 4. it is portable. 5. results are produced immediately. These factors combine to produce a system that may assist in the evaluation of many treatment methods currently employed for locomotor disorders.
