Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a force evaluating device with which forces can be determined and evaluated in a time-resolved manner. It has at least three force inducers which are arranged in a plane and which are coupled to a support plate a person can walk on. The compressive force acting on the force inducers via the support plate can be detected in a time-resolved manner by means of the force inducers. The power spectrum of the forces is calculated from the detected measured values by means of an evaluation unit. Furthermore, the determined force/time relationship by time can be differentiated from which further characteristics of the acting forces can be determined. The areas of application of the invention are mainly the field of health care and the field of rehabilitation measures and the field of the objectification of the influence of alcohol and drugs on human reaction capabilities.
