Spectral analysis of body sway.
The frequency spectrum of the center of gravity in normal subjects while standing was recorded by using a platform-strain gauge system and a digital computer. Individual differences of the spectral patterns resulted in the classification of three types. Averaged divisional frequency of each type was calculated in the range below 1 Hz in which the main change between the values with eyes open and those with eyes closed appeared as the frequency shift.
