Low-cost System for Posture Analysis Applied to Post-Traumatic Recovery

Post-traumatic recovery is a long and painful process, mainly those related to the lower limbs, where recovery is prolonged mainly by the concern of achieving a balanced recovery in posture. In the present work we present a low cost method for the evaluation of recovery in posture, based on the evaluation of the symmetry of the lower limbs, in order to evaluate the recovery of posture, the method is to make a record of the image of the patient when he is standing on his legs, resorting to the use of equipment that emit a laser light in the vertical and horizontal axes, which are calibrated, the method proposes to use markers located on symmetrical sides of the body to be evaluated, The evaluation consists of being able to determine if the patient is recovering as well as his posture is presenting a symmetry, when the markers are aligned in the evaluation, as a result of the evaluation with a patient who has flat foot surgery, where the proposal to use the presented method is evident., the method can be applied and replicated to other pathologies.
