Abstract
This paper describes, from a technologic and mathematical point of view, a systematic method for daily patient’s equilibrium evaluation during the clinical work.
We present the hardware commonly used for the Center of Gravity (COG) determination, and the basic tasks of the software that runs in a PC, including an original procedure for the rehabilitation measure. Using a simple approach, the method allows a quantification for patient’s amelioration, and gives a very useful (and effective in practice) distribution percentages for visual, somatosensitive and vestibular contribution to stability or sensory equilibrium organization.
