  • Abstract
    A force platform has been developed, which is capable of measuring postural sway in humans in two orthogonal directions. For each direction, output data consist of total average sway in two frequency bands centered on 0.57 and 2.9 Hz. The device is suitable for use in research or in a clinical setting.
