Abstract


Postural assessment is the main method for evaluating, diagnosing, and treating postural deviations caused by several reasons, whether natural or irregular posture. In this paper, we used the Kinect sensor and Unity to collect data and perform a postural reading of standing up individuals in their natural position and observe possible deviations through angular measurements of predefined joints. In the results, the proposed method was compared with the manual evaluation technique that uses a symmetrograph. We show that the method can be used to evaluate postures as an alternative to the symmetrograph.
