The System for Determining Position, Movement and Inclination of the Human Head For Orthopedics

The theoretical prerequisites for the development of a monitoring system for determining the position movements and inclinations of the human head are discussed in the article. The description of the developed three-point model, which takes into account the structural and motor features of the cervical spine, is given. The choice of reference points for installing sensors has been substantiated. Variants of movement of these sensors are shown for different positions of the human head. The article describes the static and dynamic indicators necessary to assess the movements of the cervical spine. The developed system is described - a hardware and software complex for monitoring the position, movements and tilts of the human head; a structural diagram and used electronic components are presented. Prospects for further development and application of the developed system are considered.
