1. A method of measuring physiological parameters, comprising:

  • determining a NIRS-derived measure of a tissue using near infrared (NIR) radiation over a time period, the time period including a resting period and an active period, comprising;

    emitting NIR radiation from an optical sensor of an NIRS device into a tissue of a subject during the resting period and the active period;

    detecting radiation emitted from the tissue of the subject during the resting period and the active period with the optical sensor; and

    calculating, based on the detected radiation, by one or more processors in communication with the NIRS device, the NIRS-derived measure for the resting period and the active period, wherein the NIRS-derived measure is oxygenation related data;

    associating the NIRS-derived measure as determined during the resting period to the NIRS-derived measure as determined during the active period to determine a function-related change;

    associating the function-related change to a biomechanical function, wherein the biomechanical function is incorporated into a time frame activity score;

    associating a change in intensity of the NIRS-derived measure over the time period to determine an occurrence and an intensity of the biomechanical function; and

    displaying the time frame activity score, the occurrence of the biomechanical function, or the intensity of the biomechanical function to a user.
