Acoustic and vibration analyzer data-logger MicroStrain
Description :
The Virtual Corset™ has been described as "a gentle reminder to stand up straight". A more erect posture can reduce trunk muscle activity, and may reduce the loads borne by the spinal column.
By combining an inclinometer, data logger and silent vibrating alarm in a tiny pager enclosure, the Virtual Corset™ keeps track of trunk inclination, and warns the wearer when a prescribed inclination angle limit has been reached. The clinician or therapist sets the unit's inclination limits, sample frequencies, and data save intervals using the serial port of a personal computer (PC); once programmed, the Virtual Corset may be disconnected from the PC. In the field, it performs its pre-programmed datalogging and biofeedback tasks while worn anywhere: during work, play, exercise, and rest.
