Study Groups

virtual environment

Balance test in virtual environment with a virtual reality software executed in a 6DOF Occulus Quest helmet and a motion capture software with a Kinect Azure DK camera.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

static balance

Intervention Type: OTHER

30-second right and left unipodal static balance test

dynamic balance

Intervention Type: OTHER

for the unipodal dynamic balance test, 4 movements will be done by the volunteers in this order :

• 180° elevation of the arms
• lowering of the arms on the side of the single-legged support to the horizontal position
• 180° horizontal translation of the arms
• return from the horizontal to the starting point
