A system and method for range of motion evaluation and recording for physical therapy, ergonomics, training, and individual rehabilitation. While talking with the physical therapists, a frequently mentioned problem they encountered was to evaluate the range of motion of a patient during the performance of functional movements like standing up from a chair, taking objects off of the ground, squatting, and gait analysis. Physical therapists currently use a goniometer to measure the motion of a single angle and visually inspect for inconsistencies and subjectively assess the patient during performance of functional tasks.
