Balance in Adolescents with the Support of a Motion Capture Platform

Abstract

We presents the use of technologies in the analysis of movement to assess the degree of balance in secondary education. This proposal involve the use of methods to capture human movement, particularly looking for a medium that was compatible with the current lifestyle in these ages and in the school environment. A total of 7 students from an educational institution in Colombia were evaluated, a pre-test and post-test was applied, the duration of the intervention program was 11 weeks, performing a weekly basic gymnastics session of 120 minutes, a diagnosis of anthropometric factors was made such as: Size with an average of 1.62 Cm. (DT =, 059), Mass with a Mean of 54.12 Kg. (DT = 6.89) and Age, with an Average of 15 years. (DT = 1.11). Consecutively, the static balance test was applied, using a motion capture platform, which is described in this article, the intervention program is explained, the purpose of improving body stability, whenever a participant is taken into account. Register through some forms. The results of the forms that have become the instructor, the results have been improved. These observations are validated with greater precision due to the results thrown by the platform; the lowest degrees of trunk inclination and rotation in the post test (+/- 7.35 ° and 3.7 ° on average), for the three body axes: anteroposterior, mediolateral and craniocaudal, denoting the applicability of the platform in the case study Registered in the accuracy, reliability and delivery of the results in real time.
