A Method for Quantitative Evaluation of the Results of Postural Tests

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

A method for quantitative evaluation of the results of postural tests is proposed. The method is based on contact-free measurements of 3D coordinates of body point movements. The result can serve as an integral test based on the Mahalanobis distance.
