Abstract
The study of the human equilibrium has been increasing recently. In this field a developed issue is the study to perceive one´s visual vertical. But there is no agreement in the measurement apparatus and protocol for this investigation in the different centers working in this area. In this paper it is proposed a software with the same propose as the usual mechanical apparatus used to visual excitation during equilibrium evaluation. This software can be easily used in different places, and will help to improve the patterns of the evaluation protocols in all clinics and research centers.
