Determining Postural Stability
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for determining postural stability of a person, the method comprising:
- acquiring a plurality of pressure data points over a period of time from at least one pressure sensor;
identifying a postural state for each pressure data point to generate a plurality of postural states; and
determining a postural state of the person at a point in time based on at least the plurality of postural states.

Abstract
A method for determining postural stability of a person can include acquiring a plurality of pressure data points over a period of time from at least one pressure sensor. The method can also include the step of identifying a postural state for each pressure data point to generate a plurality of postural states. The method can include the step of determining a postural state of the person at a point in time based on at least the plurality of postural states.

18. A method for determining postural stability, the method comprising:
-
acquiring at least a first pressure data point and a second pressure data point from at least one pressure sensor; identifying a first postural state and a second postural state based on the first and second pressure data points; and determining a postural state at a point in time based on at least the first postural state and the second postural state. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A system for determining postural stability of a person comprising:
-
at least one pressure sensor coupled to the person that acquires a plurality of pressure data points over a period of time; means for identifying a postural state for each pressure data point; means for generating a plurality of postural states of the person over the period of time; and means for determining a postural state of the person at a point in time based on the plurality of postural states. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26)
