1. A method for determining the horizontal component of a subject'"'"'s center of gravity and body weight, the method comprising the steps of:

  • placing the subject'"'"'s body horizontally in a substantially rigid body mold having an impression exactly matching the dorsal half of the body, the body mold being supported by supporting members;

    attaching a vertical force transducer to each of the supporting members; and

    analyzing the amplified outputs of the force transducers to compute the subject'"'"'s body weight and horizontal center of gravity.
