  • Call for Help: looking for an Integrated Software on Posture,gait, and Movement Analysis (or software + hardware)

    Hi all,

    I am conducting a research among our community of Rolfers and Structural
    Integrators, for software (or hardware+Software) that would integrate
    Posture, Gait, and Movement Analysis, for "Before/After" comparisons.

    I have stumbled in the process into the Biomechanics and Movement Science
    list server, and I searched the database.

    The closest thing I found on this forum is Laura's summary of responses
    concerning a standard in Posture Evaluation. >Summary of Responses: POSTURE
    STANDARDIZATION From: Laura Rocchi Mon, 14 Feb 2000<

    In my search for a computer system, I am also looking for a "standard", not
    so much an absolute theoretical standard such as in Laura's original search,
    but the best technological compromises available, usable by non-high
    academic profiles, yet trained and physiologically aware Postural Workers;
    not just to produce our professional data for the health care establishment
    with individual clients files, but also to eventually be able to offer our
    professional compiled data to wider analysis with other professions.
    Structural Integration or Rolfing happens to generally do wonders with both
    Posture and Movement, as they are our two single most important goals. I am
    confident that our overall professional data would gain at being measured in
    as standard a fashion as possible, as it would make the format of our data
    compatible with that of other specialties, and that would help us establish
    our profession where it stands technically, among other health or
    alternative health professions.

    The reason I am saying this is I want to invite members of this forum to
    think along these lines:
    - An integrated system that measures Static Posture as well as Gait and
    possibly other movements.
    - A system that either is a current standard among professionals, schools,
    and clinics, or has the best chances of becoming the next standard, because
    of the precision, the extensiveness, the relevancy of the parameters
    measured, but also because most professionals of the overall Posture and
    Movements are more and more using it.
    - [And of course, the price of a walkman ]

    I would appreciate any insight.

    Thanks in advance.

    I will send a 'Summary of Responses', as it seems to be the custom, on this
    forum.

    Sincerely,
