This paper details the development and preliminary validation of an automated system designed for the dynamic assessment of human balance. The system comprises a novel two-axis robotic perturbation device integrated with wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs) and a force platform for capturing postural re-sponses. The design process, component selection, integration challenges, and preliminary validation results on healthy subjects are presented, demonstrating the system's potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
This paper details the development and preliminary validation of an automated system designed for the dynamic assessment of human balance. The system comprises a novel two-axis robotic perturbation device integrated with wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs) and a force platform for capturing postural re-sponses. The design process, component selection, integration challenges, and preliminary validation results on healthy subjects are presented, demonstrating the system's potential for clinical applications.Pubblicazioni consigliate
