Motion tracking technology allows healthcare professionals to assess an individual’s movement patterns, risk for injury, and other progressive measures that can enhance their plan of treatment. While some motion capture technologies, especially wearable ones, are designed to operate in limited spaces, others, such as those relying on large-scale camera setups or force platforms, may have spatial requirements that pose challenges in smaller environments like physical therapy clinics. Additionally, such solutions also pose certain limitations including high cost and lengthy setup time. The goal of this project is to design a user-friendly biomeasurement system that is able to operate in a small space and measure functional data such as acceleration, hop distance and jump height.
