GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This twin-axis goniometer provides accurate
data related with flexion/extension and
ulnear/radial deviation. With two attachment
points to the body and a flexible beam it
enables high-performance uncompromised
operation even in dynamic scenarios, without
limiting the motion of the monitored subjects.
Each axis is made available as an
independent analog output, providing
maximum flexibility. Multiple size options are
available, enabling placement in segments
ranging from a finger (e.g. intermediate –
proximal phalanges) to a leg (e.g. lower part
of the femur – upper part of the tibia).
