Experimental studies on the training of postural control using an unstable platform

Research output: Contribution to conferenceConference paperpeer-review

Abstract

We performed experimental studies on the training of postural control using a training system which consists of an unstable platform, a computer, a computer interface, a monitoring device, and training programs. Using this system with the training programs that we have developed, we performed a variety of experiments of training the abilities of postural control of subjects. To evaluate the effects of the training, the parameters on how long a subject can maintain a focus on a target, the mean absolute deviation of the trace, and the fatigue of the muscles in lower limbs were measured. The experimental results showed that the training system can improve the ability of postural control of the subject. Therefore, the training system could be applied to clinical rehabilitation training for posture control as a new balance training system.
