eHealt distributed software environment for the valuation of body movements

This paper presents a motion capture system designed to detect and manage body motion, measuring some motion parameters, and providing a graphical reconstruction of the movement. This system can be used by a doctor to record some target body movements, which a patient can execute remotely at home. Such movements are later analyzed by the doctor who evaluates the report using effective metrics or viewing the patient's performances stored in the exchanged file. The main goal is to achieve a simple index/vote for each exercise, which is used by the patient to improve his performances and by doctor to check the rehabilitation status.
