Abstract :
Improvement of balance function in relation to motor function and the degree of recovery of daily activities[1]. Balance monitoring system can be quantitatively and objectively assess balance function in patients´ body. By this system, doctors can diagnose patients and develop appropriate rehabilitation programs. This paper presents a set of balance function testing and rehabilitation training as one of the balance monitoring system with Bluetooth wireless transmission. Paper describes the measuring principle of the system and the specific implementations of software and hardware in detail. The results show that the system run stably and reflect human balance function effectively, also the virtual reality (VR) technology is applied to the rehabilitation training part, as a result, the graphic interface becomes friendly and vivid, and patients´ motivation can be actuated.
