Abstract
The functional tests are essential to test the
functionality of different types of people, and specialty for older
adults. The primary purpose of this paper is to create a method
for the automatic measurement of the results of the different
functional tests. These are the Heel-rise Test, Functional Reach
Test, Timed Up and Go Test, Ten Meter Walk Test, Eight hop
test, Up-down hop test, Side hop test, Single hop test, Chair
Stand Test, Arm Curl Test, and Chair Sit and Reach test. The
use of sensors may increase the accuracy of the measurements
of these tests. These tests may identify several diseases, and it
will be subject to further research in the future.
