Abstract

The purpose of this study was to implement a recently developed postural stability measurement rechnique in an embedded system in order to provide a cost effective and reliable means for stability deficiencies in postural stability, and to investigate changes in postural stability associated with aging. 36 healthy subjects (23 to 65 years) were recruited for the aging study. A significant positive correlation of this stability measurement with advancing age was found (r=0.775, p<0.00001). In addition, 3 subjects who had musculo-skeletal injuries demonstrated significantly higher intercept at 3Hz comparing with their age matched controls.
