title: Portable modular transducer system for the measurement of stabilizing forces in TLS-HKA orthoses.
abstract: We describe an instrumentation package built for the measurement of stabilizing forces in thoraco-lumbar-sacral-hip-knee-ankle orthoses. The system uses inexpensive and robust transducers mounted on the orthoses. Instrumentation is contained in a back-pack; the associated software package may be used for a wide variety of transducer applications.
