  • Patent number: 12629054
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are described for a posture measurement system. The posture measurement system includes a plane alignment measurer having at least two arms and an angle sensor configured to determine a first posture angle at which the patient is tilted relative to a first plane of symmetry. The posture measurement system includes a plane alignment laser tool having at least two arms and a laser configured to generate focused light that is used to determine a second posture angle at which the patient is tilted relative to a second plane of symmetry. The posture measurement system includes a controller configured to generate a rehabilitation routine for correcting posture misalignments where rehabilitation routine is based on the first posture angle and the second posture angle.

  • Patent number: 7335167
    Abstract: A software system and apparatus for the collection of various measurements of the human body representing deviations from an ideal posture in several planes of motion relative to the body. A specially designed apparatus enables the correct measurements, while the software component performs an analysis of the measurements and recommends an exercise routine based on the severity of the deviations with respect to the planes of motion. The routine can be adjusted based on the flexibility and motivation of the patient as well as on the type of symptoms being experienced by the person. Additionally, physiologic factors are taken into account, such as the person's age and weight. The exercise routine is provided via a computer display, via email or via a web page available on the Internet, utilizing textual descriptions and visual and audio aids to describe the exercises.
