- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The main study parameter is trunk movement. Trunk movements are defined as relative movements in flexion-extension, lateroflexion and rotational directions of the upper back to the lower back, and lower back to the pelvis. This will be assessed with IMUs (2M Engineering) and 3D optical movement analysis (VICON). The kinematic output from the different IMU-models will be compared to the kinematic output from the plug-in-gait VICON model by correlation analysis. From the correlation of the different IMU-models, optimal sensor locations will be identified to represent trunk movements accurately.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Any feedback on the IMU-based VR-system can be identified by the SUS and the survey.
