  • Method and device for collecting data for posturography
    Patent number: 9872648
    Abstract: A method and a device for collecting data for posturography comprising a magnetizable body and an acceleration sensor are located on the platform, which magnetizable body and acceleration sensor are connected to a computer by means of an A/D converter. An electromagnet is located under the platform and is attached so as to be displaceable in two axes parallel to the plane of the platform, wherein the electromagnet is connected to an A/D converter and a power supply by means of a circuit, and a time-variable display, which is connected to the A/D converter, and a digital camera which are connected to the computer. By means of the method and the device it is now possible to standardize posturographic measurements, simultaneously detect the acceleration and the position of the platform, and more variably carry out provocations.
