A large number of tools for instrumental assessment are now available, evaluating different aspects of the single patient or patient groups. Most of these assessment tools are disease-specific and common to other medical disciplines, for example, goniometers, and clinical tests or scales that monitor patient impairment [1]. Technological advances now make it possible to perform an in- depth evaluation of patients, analyzing their abilities across a wide range of performances. In rehabilitation, high-technology assessment tools mainly concern diagnostic devices—used to obtain outcome measurements of variables of interest—or specific equipment that is necessary to apply the tests...
