Sažetak
This paper describes the main features of a computerized force measurement system. The system measures forces which occur in the legs and in crutches during the walk. Two forces are measured in each leg i.e. in the metatarsal part and in the heel, and in the each crutch as well. The sum of the forces in metatarsal part and in the heel is presented on the first and second channel. All forces as the function of time are shown with eight channels on the screen of the personal-computer monitor. The computer enables presentation on a large screen, calculation of the sum, automatic offset nulling, storage of whole data and print out of the desiderated sequences. To ensure the patient free walk the wireless infrared telemetry is realized. With infrared relay-units the area of patient free movement is extended. The system can be connected to the chart-recorder as well.
