Abstract
This disclosure relates generally to real time analysis of range of motion (ROM), wherein ROM is a measurement of movement around a specific joint or body part. The existing techniques for ROM fail for measurements made in certain planes and are not very effective for ROM measurements for extremely slow and very fast movements. The disclosed provides a real time analysis of ROM based on computation of range of motion (ROM) of a joint and a set of ROM parameters using a gyroscope. The gyroscope collects data from a subject at pre-defined neutral position of the subject as well as a pre-defined rotation movement of a joint of the subject. The received data is corrected for bias and processed at real time to analyze the ROM by computing range of motion (ROM) of a joint and a set of ROM parameters.
