The study presents a new approach for assessing plantarflexor muscles' function using smartphone. test involves performing repeated heel raises 60 s while seated. seated heel-rise offers simple method in those with severe balance impairment who are unable to complete tests performed standing. aimed showcase how gyroscopic data from smartphone placed on the lower limb can be used assess test. Eight participants each limb. Gyroscope and 2D video analysis (60 Hz) of motion were determine number cycles, average rise (T-rise), lowering (T-lower), cycle (T-total) times. cycles detected matched exactly when gyroscope kinematic compared. There was good time domain agreement between (T-rise = 0.0005 s, T-lower 0.0013 T-total 0.0017 s). 95% CI limits small (T-total -0.1118, 0.1127 -0.1152, 0.1179 -0.0763, 0.0797 Results indicate that thigh successfully an attractive alternative functionality perform standing positions.
