Strong and simple machine whose support is got on springs and can be controlled manually, by means of pneumatic pistons or thanks to the software. All of this, to position the platform and make it either partially stable or leave it completely suspended. (Servoplatform).

This dynamic freedom mimics more accurately natural conditions that disturb proprioceptive information. With a central motorized support which is also electronical (captors) and a suitable software, Multitest Platform (Balance Quest) allows us to draw up quantified sensory diagnosis and rehabilitate. With the constant possibility of referring to the previous sessions (comparisons). You can also use a FEED-BACK and a pendular or optokinetic together with a jerky stimulus.
The platform gives you the following information :
• surface described by the subject's projection of the G center
• speed average of the G center's shifting and the covered
  distance

• percentage of stability
• quotient of Romberg
• angular movements of the platform : in 1/10°
• temporal and frequential analysis
• fall analysis
Pneumatic control of the platform tilt in three planes and results visualization in real time (display in degrees) on the programming console.

The sway is controlled by the pneumatic pistons supplied by a silent compressor.

The pneumatic and electronic system also allows us to create multidirectional suspended and tilted planes displayed graphically and numerically with a resolution of 1/10 degrees.

Quick or slow impulses can also give us the time of the subject's reaction to regain his initial balance.

Of course, results (surface in Cm2, speed in seconds, percentage of stability) and syntheses are calculated by the software.
 
Static and dynamic platform (in the three planes) allows us to identify in real time the gravity sensing ability of the patient. Thanks to an electronic link RS232, Windows (XP) collects this information and analyses it in order to get results.
