Posture and Movement

Study implemented poses and movement paths.

Posture and Movement shows standing, seated, supine, prone and lateral poses, joint-axis relationships and selected movement paths. Use it to compare implemented position, range and sequence—not to diagnose a movement disorder.

Make pose and movement comparisons repeatable.

1. Open Posture and Movement from the Clinical DT workspace.
2. Choose standing, seated, supine, prone or lateral as the reference pose.
3. Use the degree controls on implemented joint axes to establish the starting relationships.
4. Select an available path such as arm elevation, hip–knee flexion or squat.
5. Follow the displayed phase and review playback between 0.1× and 2× speed.
6. Replay from the same viewpoint before changing the view.
7. Save a revision when you need to preserve the implemented pose, controls and movement state.

Describe pose, joint relationship, range and path.

• The reference pose and implemented joint-axis degree settings.
• The selected movement path and current phase.
• Relative joint position at the beginning, middle and end of playback.
• Range shown by the implemented controls—not a measured person-specific range.
• The saved revision when comparing one configured state with another.

Visual movement is not the same as measured performance.

The tool can demonstrate modeled movement relationships. It does not establish force, pain, motor control, tissue capacity or functional ability unless those variables are explicitly represented.

Not a gait lab or clinical assessment.

Do not use the tool to evaluate a person, prescribe exercise, determine injury risk or replace motion capture, physical examination or professional rehabilitation assessment.
