Document Summary
It can be used as the coach(cid:1685)s or clinician"s objective sense. Integrating your knowledge with technology can enhance your abilities. Measure angular speed in degrees/sec over time. At 0 mark, nothing is happening, no rotation. At bottom peak/dip, it(cid:1685)s rotating in one direction. It then comes back to there 0 point where it(cid:1685)s static again. Then the lines split again in a greater way and in an opposite direction than everything else. Everything hits peak and hits max rotational velocity. As you get further from radius of rotation, angular velocity increases and then everything suddenly decays e. g. slap shot, golf. Can determine whats happening in the activity once we collect well defined information. Function of manual: measure passive range of motion. Manual is 2 pieces of plastic over laid and split on axis and tells you degree person reaches which determines passive ranges of motion. Function of electro: measure active range of motion.
