Abstract
A biofeedback system for self-monitoring of selected body motions includes configurable mounting appliances, compatible twist, stretch and flexure sensors, coded means for positioning and orienting sensors at any location of the body, and a small, self contained signal processing and feedback module. Multi-level instant audible feedback is employed to provide a quick learning environment. The motion sensors include low force, high compliance, long extension sensors.
