Abstract
A standing position evaluation apparatus includes a center-of-gravity position detection unit that detects a head-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a head of a subject in a standing position projected onto a floor surface and a body-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a body of the subject in the standing position projected onto the floor surface, and an evaluation unit that evaluates a standing position balance of the subject by using the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position.
Claims18
A standing position evaluation apparatus comprising:
- a center-of-gravity position detection unit configured to detect a head-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a head of a subject in a standing position projected onto a floor surface and a body-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a body of the subject in the standing position projected onto the floor surface;
- and
- an evaluation unit configured to evaluate a standing position balance of the subject by using the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position, and
- wherein the evaluation unit is configured to, in response to a difference between the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position being larger than a threshold, notify that the evaluated standing position balance indicates a possibility of disease.
A standing position evaluation method comprising:
- detecting a head-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a head of a subject in a standing position projected onto a floor surface and a body-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a body of the subject in a standing position projected onto the floor surface;
- and
- evaluating a standing position balance of the subject by using the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position,
- wherein the evaluating comprises, in response to a difference between the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position being larger than a threshold, notifying that the evaluated standing position balance indicates a possibility of disease.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for evaluating a standing position, the process comprising:
- detecting a head-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a head of a subject in a standing position projected onto a floor surface and a body-center-of-gravity position that is a position of a center of gravity of a body of the subject in the standing position projected onto the floor surface;
- and
- evaluating a standing position balance of the subject by using the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position,
- wherein the evaluating comprises, in response to a difference between the detected head-center-of-gravity position and the detected body-center-of-gravity position, being larger than a threshold notifying that the evaluated standing position balance indicates a possibility of disease.
