Description
Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is being used at all levels of education and career paths. In the healthcare field, biomechanical analysis is used to study human movement and evaluate the mobility and quality of life of individuals with certain interventions. An artificial intelligence system used to evaluate the health and mobility of individuals with a smartphone video is sit2stand.ai. This AI application provides sensor technologies at an inexpensive cost. Providing flexion time and trunk acceleration that is used in the modifications of prosthetics and orthotics to provided stability, ground reaction force, and injury risk to the user.
Methods: 10 patients were asked to participate in a research study of the evaluation of prosthetics and Orthotics. 5 individuals were lower limb amputees, and 5 individuals were ablebodied to evaluate the effects of the interventions on the individuals' mobility and quality of life.
The patients were asked to sit in a stable chair and to cross their hands over their chest and sit -and-stand 10 times while being recorded. The videos were then uploaded to the AI application sit2stand.ai, and data was collected for graphical analysis.
Results: The results show flexion time and trunk acceleration after collected from the AI application sit2stand.ai. The graphical analysis showed the overall comparison of each individual that participated in the research and the usability of sit2stand.ai.
Conclusion: Results suggest that the AI application sit2stand.ai is an effective, accessible, user and clinically friendly at evaluating lower limb prosthesis.
