Abstract
Subject headings
Close
- Injuries related to falls are a major threat to the health of older persons. A fall may result not only in an injury but also in a decreased sense of autonomy in the daily life. To be able to prevent such falls, a need to further understand the complex mechanisms involved in balance and walking is needed. Here we present an immersive virtual reality system, in which a person can move around while being subjected to various events, which may influence balance and walking
